I kinda lost the way things used to be
I kinda lost the sky and the deep blue sea
I kind of lost the wonder
the will to look and see
a shadow of the man I used to be
I kind lost the will to carry on
I kind of lost the essence of my song
I kinda lost the magic
the shade of an old oak tree
a shadow of the man I used to be
I kinda lost the memories
I kinda lost the dreams
all that’s left are deaf and silent screams
I kinda lost the emotions
and what it feels like to be free
I kinda lost you and I kinda lost me
I kinda lost all self-respect and shame
I kind of lost what it feels like to be in pain
the lows are gone
and the highs have vanished
I’m a sinkin’ ship at sea
a shadow of the man I used to be
a shadow of the man
a shadow of the man
a shadow of the man
I used to be
I used to be
a shadow of the man I used to be
