All She Wrote by Default

Default became one of my favorite bands during college with the the strenth of "Wasting My Time" from the debut album, The Fallout. I was heavily watching out for the 2nd album to come and when I got news that it was released in the US, I patiently downloaded the album thru music channels in IRC.

All She Wrote was the one which was very easy to listen to and became a favorite that time. I even convinced my bestfriend (Dris) to take a listen to the album and he liked the song as well, even trying to play it in an acoustic guitar.

Something's wrong with your mind
It won't think of me anymore
Was it all a waste of time
Tell me why was I such a chore
Broken bottles empty
Cut my mouth so I can't say

Today was that day
It was that time
And that was all that she wrote for me
You fell away
I don't know why
And that was all that she wrote for me

Lying here in your bed
The one that you liked to do it in
Pieces of long brown hair
Are all over it and still in my brain
i can't explain
What it's like not knowing if I'll ever cross your mind

Today was that day
It was that time
And that was all that she wrote for me
You fell away
I don't know why
And that was all that she wrote for me

Sleep through the day
Fight through the night
Seven a.m. and the tv is white
Covered in snow
I never knew that hell could get so cold

Today was that day
It was that time
And that was all that she wrote for me
You fell away
I don't know why
And that was all that she wrote for me

Today was that day
It was that time
And that was all that she wrote for me
You fell away
I don't know why
And that was all that she wrote for me

Something's wrong with your mind
It won't think of me anymore
Was it all a waste of time

Wasting My Time by Default

Probably this song best describes my emotional life throughout college, I was REALLY pursuing this girl for around 3 years now and I still can't admit to myself that there's nothing I can do to make things better thus leading me to believe that I am... Wasting My Time.

Default, a band from Canada, was one of the bands that came in during the time when nu-metal was fading out, cashing in on the success of fellow Canadian Chad Kroeger of Nickelback. I really liked the vocals, guitar arpeggios on the verses and punchy power chords off the guitar heavy chorus. I bought my copy of this from Odyssey Records at their Robinson's Manila branch... if I'm not mistaken it was around December when I bought it .

Well I don't want to see you waiting
I've already gone too far away
I still can't keep the day from ending
No more messed up reasons for me to stay

Well this is not for real, Afraid to feel
I just hit the floor, Don't ask for more
I'm wasting my time, I'm wasting my time
You can't stop the feeling, There is no reason
Let's make the call, And take it all again
Woah again

Months went by with us pretending
When did our light turn from green to red
I took a chance and left you standing
Lost the will to do this once again


Well this is not for real
Afraid to feel
I just hit the floor
Don't ask for more
I'm wasting my time
I'm wasting my time
You can't stop the feeling
There is no reason
Let's make the call
And take it all
I'm wasting my time
I'm wasting my time again
Woahhhh again

See you waiting
Lonesome, lonely
See you waiting
I see you waiting


Well this is not for real
Afraid to feel
I just hit the floor
Don't ask for more
I'm wasting my time
I'm wasting my time
You can't stop the feeling
There is no reason
Let's make the call
And take it all
I'm wasting my time
I'm wasting my ...
Well this is not for real
Afraid to feel
I just hit the floor
Don't ask for more
I'm wasting my time
I'm wasting my time
You can't stop the feeling
There is no reason
Let's make the call
And take it all again
Woahhhh again
