My New Life
[unknown] Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Empty pockets and a head that hurts
Almost got to you last night, but the bottle got me first
No points to the birds
Beat by the church bells well, that's a first
Waking up, I've had enough of new stains on my shirt
Went too fast, ended last
And in my drunken haze, your fleeting face is the only grace
But if life's a test, the best you'll get from me is just a guess
Coming out of the bath
Meet the mirror, try to laugh
There's been too many cracks since you autographed my heart
The sunshine starts to hurt
No state to drive, still I find reverse
Gonna get to you this time, if the cops don't get me first
And I've been bet upon, sat upon and spat upon
Went too fast, ended last
And in my drunken haze, your fleeting face is the only grace
But if life's a test, the best you'll get from me is just a guess
I'm easy, I'm alright, I'm something to see
Driving cross town to get you to stick by me
Here I am at your door
Couldn't say what I'm waiting for
This drunken sailor's ended up on some strange shore
No time to rehearse
Got no bottle to ease my nerves
Looking down, I see I'm walking round with new stains on my shirt
Turn around, start to walk back down with new stains on my shirt
I got these new stains on my shirt
I guess these new stains on my shirt were meant to last
The lyrics of "[unknown]'s" song "My New Life" paint a vivid picture of personal struggle, self-reflection, and longing for connection. The singer describes a night of excess and missed opportunities, highlighted by physical and emotional wear and tear. The mention of new stains on the shirt and empty pockets symbolize a life in disarray, with the bottle being a crutch that prevents reaching out for what truly matters.
The reference to being beaten by church bells and woken up by new stains on the shirt captures a sense of defeat and routine in the singer's life. The imagery of being bet upon, sat upon, and spat upon conveys a feeling of being used and discarded, with fleeting moments of clarity and grace found in memories of a loved one's face.
As the singer navigates through a mix of regret and determination, the lyrics delve into themes of self-destructive behavior and longing for connection. The verses portray a struggle to hold onto moments of happiness while grappling with past mistakes and a desire for redemption.
The final verse, where the singer stands at the door, unsure of what they are waiting for, encapsulates a sense of uncertainty and lost direction. The repetitive mention of new stains on the shirt, as a metaphor for mistakes that linger, underscores a cycle of regret and missed opportunities. Ultimately, the lyrics suggest a search for meaning and a longing for a fresh start amidst the chaos and stains of the past.

New stains on my shirt
Constant reminders of my mistakes and struggles
Empty pockets and a head that hurts
Feeling broke and mentally exhausted
Almost got to you last night, but the bottle got me first
Alcohol preventing me from reaching a loved one
No points to the birds
Feeling disconnected from nature
Beat by the church bells well, that's a first
Feeling defeated by unexpected challenges
Waking up, I've had enough of new stains on my shirt
Frustration with my continuous mistakes
And I've been bet upon, sat upon and spat upon
Facing constant criticism and mistreatment
Went too fast, ended last
Rushing and failing in life
And in my drunken haze, your fleeting face is the only grace
Finding solace in moments of clarity with loved ones
But if life's a test, the best you'll get from me is just a guess
Uncertainty about how to navigate life's challenges
