Wasted Hours (A Life That We Can Live) Songtext
von Arcade Fire

All those wasted hours we used to know
Spent the summer staring out the window
The wind, it takes you where it wants to go

First they built the road, then they built the town
That′s why we're still driving around and around
And all we see are kids in buses longing to be free


Wasted hours before we knew
Where to go and what to do
Wasted hours that you made new
And turned into a life that we can live

Some cities make you lose your head
Endless suburbs stretched out thin and dead
And what was that line you said

Wishing you were anywhere but here
You watch the life you′re livin' disappear
And now I see, we're still kids in buses longing to be free


Wasted hours before we knew
Where to go and what to do
Wasted hours that you made new
And turned into a life that we can live
