[Verse 1]
It feels like I'm already running
But I can't move any faster than I am
The sunrise and the phone starts ringing
I'm shutting down, I'm turning off
I'm moving on from everything I am

[Chorus]
How many hallelujahs will it take
For you to get in line?
When will you ever learn from your mistakes?
Boy, you gotta try
Deadlines and progress, just being honest
You can do what you want with your time
But I don't wanna waste mine

[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh
(Yeah, I'm not gonna waste mine)
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh

[Verse 2]
The day's long, but I need it to be longer
They say, "Gotta keep your head down"
This hard work (This hard work)
Don't make me any stronger
So I'm easing up, I'm letting go
I gotta keep this heart from burning out
[Chorus]
How many hallelujahs will it take
For you to get in line?
When will you ever learn from your mistakes?
Boy, you gotta try
Deadlines and progress, just being honest
You can do what you want with your time
But I ain't gonna waste mine

[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh (I don't wanna waste mine)
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
Take your time
Your sweet time
Take your time
'Cause I ain't gonna waste mine
[Chorus]
How many hallelujahs will it take
For you to get in line?
When will you ever learn from your mistakes?
Boy, you gotta try
Deadlines and progress, just being honest
You can do what you want with your time
Oh, but I ain't gonna waste mine, yeah

[Outro]
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh (Oh, I ain't gonna waste mine)
(Yeah, I don't wanna waste mine, yeah)
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh (Oh, I ain't gonna waste mine)
Oh-oh, oh-oh (Yeah, I don't wanna waste mine)
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh (I ain't gonna waste time)
Oh-oh
