lyrics

Look at these old clothes
You thought you'd get dressed up again
And show me a shadow of your former self
While the land recovers, we pull back the covers and find
A new life
An owl starts hooting in the afternoon
Oh the good life
In the shadow of your former selves

You are a peon
A peanut in a walnut shell
And there's no use in pretending what you used to be
You're never ever gonna recreate the memory
Don't even go there
Wasted on your past and former selves

I think I've seen a ghost
Wandering round from yesteryear
A spectre
A dull fog clouding up the atmosphere
We've a new life
With no shadow of our former selves

You are a wastrel
Why don't you get back into your shell
And you'll never be the person that you want to be
You're never ever gonna shake it and you'll never be free
Your good life
Wasted on your past and former selves
