You're trying to replace yourself
You're trying to replace yourself, you're trying to replace yourself
You're trying to replace yourself, you're trying to replace yourself
You're trying to replace yourself, you're trying to replace yourself
You're trying to replace yourself, you're

Carving out a fact from a reckoning!
Beckoning your back, skin sagging off it's skeleton
Levitating off the ground
Is another man wearing your face!
All the other false identities
Remedies or enemies to mitigate your memories
Shuddered at what they found
When they stripped away the grace!

Eulogy or biography
I'm who I oughtta be
And that is God to me
Never never never!

So, my God, what's wrong with me?
If who I wanna be might be
Never never never
Never never never
Never never never
No, never!

You'll never take me alive, baby!
You'll never take me alive
You'll never take me, you'll never take me, you better pray that I die!
You'll never take me alive, baby!
You'll never take me ali-I-I-I've!

You'll never take me, you'll never take me, and no, you're never gon' find
Somebody to replace yourself, somebody to replace yourself!
Somebody to replace yourself, somebody to replace yourself!
Damn, I thought you're not your imposter

You're so sure you're not gonna get caught!
Dead in your own skin
But you didn't choose what you were born in!
And add another man to your repertoire
Ready in your head and fed upon your memoirs
Still the same rules apply
From the birthday to the mourning!
What you feel and what you do
Are those things really you?
And if not, then what is?
Never never never!

So, my God, what's wrong with you?
And I'm still asking who that is!
Never never never
Never never never
Never never never
No, never!

You'll never take me alive, baby!
You'll never take me alive
You'll never take me, you'll never take me, you better pray that I die!
You'll never take me alive, baby!
You'll never take me ali-I-I-I've!
You'll never take me, you'll never take me, and no, you're never gon' find

Somebody to replace yourself, somebody to replace yourself!
Somebody to replace yourself, somebody to replace yourself!
You'll never take me alive, baby! (this is not enough)
You'll never take me alive (this is not enough to prove it yet!)
You'll never take me
You'll never take me

You better pray that I die! (no, I need to hit the bottom)
You'll never take me alive, baby! (this is not enough)
You'll never take me alive (this is not enough to prove it yet!)
You'll never take me
You'll never take me
You better pray that I die! (no, I need to hit the bottom)

Somebody to replace yourself, somebody to replace yourself!
Somebody to replace yourself, somebody to replace yourself!
Somebody to replace yourself, somebody to replace yourself!
Somebody to replace yourself, somebody to replace yourself!
Hey!
