lyrics

David muttered silently as he was cleaning up the store
You were not born to die here, you were made for something more
And at that very moment, in walked this big cat from the city, real big guy
And let me tell you, David got that twinkle, corner of his eye

David hated just being David, didn't want to be himself
But if he couldn't make his life work, what if he stole somebody else's

Give me your personality and your face
And I'm taking your place, as you sink in the river
Of a past life, that don't make sense to me

Looking back it was amazing that the fellow was so much like him
So that when he took him over, it was so easy to fit in
Fit in, I'm sayin', to his clothes, his job, his swanky apartment
Maybe even fit in to some people, if you know what I'm sayin'. Oh yeah, you do.

David tried but something wasn't right and he was bored before too long
Even though he'd had a good life, it was time to move along

Give me a new identity and a name
And I'll forfeit the shame of a past life, a past life
Of a past life, that don't make sense no more
My soul, my soul only dreams about the end
