Former Things Lyrics by Lonelady

Former Things

2021

[Verse 1]
I lived inside a dream
Too long and it turned to a melody
No I'm not who I used to be
I used to see magic in everything
But that has gone away from me
I can't find the remedy

[Pre-Chorus]
I pace the floor like a recluse
Back and forth, what can I do?
But all I felt was isolation
And I feel like lately I've been missing in action
And I feel like lately I've been missing in action

[Chorus]
I'm not who I used to be
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I've been caught in a melody
Oh, oh, oh I been lost inside a dream
Too long and now I'm stranded

[Post-Chorus]
[?] as a final bit (and I try)
[?] as a final bit (I try, how I try)
[?] as a final bit (I try, I try)
I'm not who I used to be

[Verse 2]
What happened to those days of fun?
Imagination has playеd a trick on me
And I can't shake this awful gravity
I'm nevеr balancing
I used to think I could do anything
But that has gone away from me
I can't find the remedy

[Pre-Chorus]
I pace the floor like a recluse
Back and forth but it's no use
I think I made a bad decision
And I feel like lately I've been missing in action
And I feel like lately I've been missing in action

[Chorus]
I'm not who I used to be
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I've been caught in a melody
Oh, oh, oh I've been lost inside a dream
Too long and now I'm stranded

[Post-Chorus]
[?] as a final bit (and I try)
[?] as a final bit (I try, how I try)
[?] as a final bit (I try, I try)
I'm not who I used to be
Ah no-no-no

[Refrain]
Na-na-na-na na-na-na-na
Magic things I used to think, used to feel
Na-na-na-na na-na-na-na
Are you still inside me, or are you former?
Na-na-na-na na-na-na-na
Former things, are you here, are you still inside me?
I [?] former things I remember

[Bridge]
(All the things I used to think, used to feel) What happened?
To those days of fun?

[Chorus]
I'm not who I used to be
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I've been caught in a melody
Oh, oh, oh I've been lost inside a dream
Too long and now I'm stranded
I'm not who I used to be
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I've been caught in a melody
And don'tcha know I, I dream of former things (I'm stranded)
'Cause I can't find the magic
Oh, no, no
Oh, no, no

[Refrain]
Na-na-na-na na-na-na-na
Magic things I used to think, used to feel
Na-na-na-na na-na-na-na
Are you still inside me, or are you former?
Na-na-na-na na-na-na-na
Former things, are you here, are you still inside me?
I [?] former things I remember
