[Verse]

I threw him out like he was trash one night

The dumbest thing I've ever done

He was the best thing that I'll ever find

Yea a waste is a terrible thing to mind

[Chorus]

And I'm going crazy in these four white walls

All I feel is his ghost walking by

I wish I didn't see how politely I was blind

Yea a waste is a terrible thing to mind

Yea a waste is a terrible thing to mind

[Verse]

I keep me warm with the bridges above

That won't give me warmth alone

There is a few slipping deeper into time

Yea a waste is a terrible thing to mind

[Chorus]

And I'm going crazy in these four white walls

All I feel is his ghost walking by

I wish I didn't see how politely I was blind

Yea a waste is a terrible thing to mind

A waste is a terrible thing to mind

A waste is a terrible thing to mind
