lyrics

There's something familiar
About playing an old song
Even in the dead of winter
The words roll off my tongue

I've been replaced,
It seems
I've been replaced,
In your dreams

There's something familiar
About breaking the old rules
And though it's getting clearer
You have to fight the old school

I've been replaced,
By some familiarity
I've been replaced,
And it's bewildered me

What does it mean to be safe?
Is it comfort or grace
When police with their guns
How they do soldier on
When you feel you've replaced,
All bad thoughts from your face
Living free from harm,
In some comfortable arms

There's something familiar
All the pieces rearranged
Even staring in the mirror
I can tell something has changed

I've been replaced,
By someone one step ahead
I've been replaced,
By someone who's right in their head

What does it mean to be safe?
Is it comfort or grace
When police with their guns
How they do soldier on
When you feel you've replaced,
All bad thoughts from your face
Living free from harm,
In some comfortable arms

And when the morning comes
And you still wake up tired
A familiar song on the radio
And I hope you feel inspired
I hope you know it'll be okay
Until the wee hours of the night
I hope you know it'll be okay
To leave the familiar behind

Leave the familiar behind
Leave the familiar behind
I know, I know, you've tried
To leave the familiar behind

Leave the familiar behind
Leave the familiar behind
I know, I know, you've tried
To leave the familiar behind

Leave the familiar behind
Leave the familiar behind
I know, I know, you've tried
To leave the familiar behind

Leave the familiar behind
Leave the familiar behind
I know, I know, you've tried
To leave the familiar behind.
