about

There's a brutality to 'Wasting Time' that goes unsaid. The kick and the snare lash continuously as the lyric yearns for certainty 'I can only see so far into the future/I can only see so far into the haze'. The song in itself is an exorcism of illusion, cut mostly live in a converted tractor shed on NSW's south coast where a lot of the record came together.

lyrics

I can only see so far into the distance
I can only see so far into the haze
I know that you’ll come back running when it suits ya
I know you’ll come running back one of these days

So I’ll think about the perfect place to meet ya
And I’ll call you when I find it on the way
And we’ll sit and smoke a ciggie in the bleachers
Try our best not to scare ourselves away

Wasting time
There’s no time

There’s a perfect ending floating in the distance
There’s a perfect ending floating in the lake
Got a better chance of laying with persistence
In a bed that’s never going to be made

*

Hello, my sweet desire
Farewell, my sweet denial
