Blue Rodeo - Wasted lyrics

Getting high don't make you happy
Still it's all you ever do
One day the life of the party
Now you haven't a clue
All that was a distant memory
Now you're feelin' so blue
A passing tear still it makes you laugh
As another morning comes too soon

You think you're so smart you got your plan
You've got it all worked out
You can fool your friends but
You won't get far
With that broken heart of yours
Forever lettin' you down
You can't explain it
Might as well get wasted

Every day starts with the promise
This'll be the last time
But come the late night with it's sorrows
And you feel like gettin' high
When all the world seems so far away
And you don't care why
Precious sleep is all you really need
But, you just can't close your eyes

You got so much love to give
But now it's all just slippin' away
Can't take yourself for another day
With that broken heart of yours
Forever lettin' you down
You can't explain it
Might as well get wasted

You think you're so smart you got your plan
You've got it all worked out
You can fool your friends but
You won't get far
With that broken heart of yours
Forever lettin' you down
