about

D2UR went through several drafts of “Wasted Time” before they were truly satisfied with it. During the pandemic, Diane, while strumming some Zep-ish type chords, wrote a new chorus incorporating the theme of wasting time while Mike initiated some bass tracks and guitar while David incorporated a baritone guitar track to make a very cool feel for the song. They then began adding additional instruments such as drums, and backing vocals to give it its final form.
After hours of hard work and dedication, they finally crafted something beautiful that was both powerful and meaningful. The lyrics are thought-provoking yet pacifying at once – urging us to live in the present moment instead of reflecting on our past or worrying about our future so much that we forget to appreciate life today.

lyrics

Constant change
Looking for Perfection
Never satisfied, the way things are
Easily bothered by reactions in life
N’ its nothing more than habits learned by behaviour

Ah…ah…ah..ah…aha

I see people…. falling into to that same old trap
Don’t you wait for the bad news to appreciate your life

I WANT TO KNOW……WHERE DO WE BEGIN
JUST DOIN’ AS I’M TOLD……N’ HERE WE GO AGAIN
LET’S SAY GOODBYE…..TOTAL BREAKDOWN, ONE MORE TRY
GET ME BACK THAT……WASTED TIME

Expectations are locked into to our thinking
Need to make mistakes, to learn and to grow
Let’s not focus with our frenzied minds
Express some gratitude and show a little kindness

I WANT TO KNOW……WHERE DO WE BEGIN
JUST DOIN’ AS I’M TOLD……N’ HERE WE GO AGAIN
LET’S SAY GOODBYE…..TOTAL BREAKDOWN, ONE MORE TRY
GET ME BACK THAT……WASTED TIME

Seeking attention, Looking for perfection
Never satisfied
Crazy intentions, Lies and deception
Just wasted time

OH I WANT TO KNOW…..WHERE DO WE BEGIN
ONLY DOIN’ AS I’M TOLD….AND HERE WE GO AGAIN
LET’S SAY GOODBYE….TOTAL BREAKDOWN AND ONE MORE TRY
N’ here comes the bad news
YA I WANT TO KNOW …..WHERE DO WE BEGIN
OH, I’M DOIN’ AS I’M TOLD…..AND HERE WE GO AGAIN
LET’S SAY GOODBYE ….TOTAL BREAKDOWN AND ONE MORE TRY
GET ME BACK THAT, WASTED TIME
