Afraid it's far too late
But she's past the sell-by-date
And I'm struggling to estimate
My time left here
She used to be my queen
My always and everything
But I cut all of my ties clean
Henry the 8th

I'll tell everybody
That I'm the shadow of the shadow
That I used to be
And I can't love her
So she won't love me
Now she's gone
And three cheers for the glorious dead
She chose life but I chose death instead
And I just cant wait till I lay my head
Now she's gone
Now she's gone

Ain't much for me to say
She's better off on her way
And I don't need no last hooray
I'll exit cold
I ain't gonna call her back
I'm on the other side of the map
And I've found treasure in every trap
Swimming in fools gold

I'll tell everybody
That I'm the shadow of the shadow
That I used to be
And I can't love her
So she won't love me
Now she's gone
And three cheers for the glorious dead
She chose life but I chose death instead
And I just can't wait till I lay my head
Now she's gone

I'm drowning in fools gold
Now you're gone
I've just lost my soul for sure
Now you're gone
Gone, now you're gone
Gone, yeah you're gone
Gone, yeah you're gone
Gone, yeah you're gone
