"How It Feels To Be Replaced" lyrics
It's been eighteen weeks since I've seen my friend
And it's hard for me to comprehend how this happened
Oh, perhaps it's just a phase
When we turned thirteen, yeah we made a pact
That we'd always have each other's backs
And it's tragic, but I think I've been replaced
Seems to me those days are gone, no more time for fun
No more time for friendship
Just last week I called him up to make some plans, I said
"I've got tickets to the ballgame if you want to go with me
I haven't seen you in a minute, I know it's your favorite team
I think they're gonna win 'cause they've been on a winning streak
And maybe when we're finished we could kick it by the beach"
You said "Hey man," and "Listen, I would love to, but you see
I've got plans with the missus for our anniversary"
I said "Alright, I miss you, could you call me when you're free?"
And in my heart, I felt like something died inside of me
I guess this is how it feels to be replaced, mm
I guess this is how it feels to be replaced, mm
I've got tickets to the ballgame and no one to go with me
I never thought that this is how my life was gonna be
I guess this is how it feels to be replaced, mm
Oh, I'd hate for this to be the end
But I just can't see how we can mend this divide now
I don't think there's any way
I know friendships fade and plans can change
Was naive to think that we would stay close forever
Maybe that was my mistake
Seems to me those days are gone, no more time for fun
No more time for friendship
Just last week I called him up to make some plans, I said
"I've got tickets to the ballgame if you want to go with me
I haven't seen you in a minute, I know it's your favorite team
I think they're gonna win 'cause they've been on a winning streak
And maybe when we're finished we could kick it by the beach"
You said "Hey man," and "Listen, I would love to, but you see
I've got plans with the missus for our anniversary"
I said "Alright, I miss you, could you call me when you're free?"
And in my heart, I felt like something died inside of me
I guess this is how it feels to be replaced, mm
I guess this is how it feels to be replaced, mm
I've got tickets to the ballgame and no one to go with me
I never thought that this is how my life was gonna be
I guess this is how it feels to be replaced, mm
And it's hard for me to comprehend how this happened
Oh, perhaps it's just a phase
