Lyrics

Replacement

[Verse 1]

I can no more replace

The place I lay my head

The city where I live

Is the place where I was born

Yesterday and today

A half a mile away

And I still draw the air

From where I first drew breath

[Verse 2]

I can no more replace

The company you made

The memory of it

Has ruined me for them

And all my growing up

Somewhere I threw it out

What happened to my home

And half the things I had

[Verse 3]

Is this the only way

To while away my days

Dеfiant, eccentric

Or heavy with child
