Taylor Hawkins & The Coattail Riders Lyrics
"Wasted Energy"

No one's gonna say goodbye
No one there to be surprised
No one's gonna ask you why
Nothing's gonna take it all away

No one in there to tell you not to
No one who came along to see it through
No one gonna throw a rope for you

When it's all just wasted energy
You get one ticket outta here
You don't even have to cry to see

Nothing's gonna take it all away
Baby, nothing's gonna take it all away for you

Shut the door and lock 'em out
Shove it right back in the face
Let 'em try and work it out

Was it all just wasted energy?
You get one ticket outta here
Do you really have to cry to see?

Nothing's gonna take it all away
Baby, nothing's gonna take it all away
Nothing's gonna take it all away
Baby, nothing's gonna take it all away for you
