Story Behind The Song
I was working as a psychologist, and this young girl who had all the advantages in life was screwing her life up by reliving her past and trashing her present. This is what I really wanted to say to her but couldn't as a therapist.

Lyrics
v1
Your tired eyes and broken heart
You've worn away the brightest part
You're giving up before you start
You've been struck dead
You've been struck dead
Now hear me
CHORUS
You can keep rewinding, always losing time
And keep the past in mind
And "don't know who you are"
You can keep reminding
Always fighting just to taste it
Can you face it?
V2
Your jaded face and bitter tongue
Your growing old but dying young
But your best is yet to come
You've been wasted
You've been wasted
REPEAT CHORUS
BRIDGE
From the source of your regret
Lies the reason for your dread
Afraid of what might lie ahead
If you let yourself forget
You've been wasted, you've been wasted
Now hear me
REPEAT CHORUS
