Текст песни Mr. Capgras Encounters a Secondhand Vanity: Tulpamancer's Prosopagnosia / Pareidolia (As Direct Result of Trauma to the Fusiform Gyrus) [2020 Remastered Version] - Will Wood and the Tapeworms

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 its 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 ought to 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 alive
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 another man in 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 alive
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!
