Lost in Yesterday

When we were living in squalor, wasn't it heaven?

Back when we used to get on it four out of seven

Now even though that was a time I hated from day one

Eventually, terrible memories turn into great ones

So if they call you

Embrace them

If they hold you

Erase them

'Cause it might have been something, who's to say?

Does it help to get lost in yesterday?

And you might have missed something, don't say

'Cause it hurts to be lost in yesterday

And you're gonna have to let it go someday

You've been digging it up like Groundhog Day

'Cause it might have been something, don't say

'Cause it hurts to be lost in yesterday

Matty said life didn't go the way that he planned it

Said, "Oh, what I'd give to start over, boy, I'd command it"

So what was I ever afraid of? Why did I worry?

And why was I ever so brainless? Head in a flurry

'Cause if they call you

Embrace them

If they stall you

Erase them

'Cause it might have been something, who's to say?

Does it help to get lost in yesterday?

And you might have missed something, don't say

'Cause it hurts to be lost in yesterday

And you're gonna have to let it go someday

You've been digging it up like Groundhog Day

'Cause it might have been something, don't say

'Cause it hurts to stay lost in yesterday

If it calls you

Embrace it

If it haunts you

Face it

I know it's mad, I understand

It's only snakes and ladders

The myriad you never had

There's only one that matters

And if it calls you

Embrace it

If it holds you

Erase it

Erase it
