Amelia - Erase, replace

[Verse 1] You tear the pages from our hands Call it truth we understand Turn the past into a lie Look us straight into the eyes Statues fall without a sound Names erased, buried underground You say it’s time to move ahead While you dig up what is dead [Chorus] Erase, replace Rewrite the face Of everything we used to know Twist the past Make it last Into something we don’t own But we remember We don’t forget You won’t erase us that easy [Verse 2] You clean the words, remove the pain Wash it out like pouring rain Every scar you try to hide Leaves another truth denied You decide what should remain Who to honor, who to blame But you never walked these streets You don’t feel what memory means [Pre-chorus] You change the lines You shift the ground But something here Won’t be unwound [Chorus] Erase, replace Rewrite the face Of everything we used to know Twist the past Make it last Into something we don’t own But we remember We don’t forget You won’t erase us that easy [Bridge] We see the cracks We hear the lies We feel the weight You try to hide You call it progress We call it theft Of every name Of what is left [Solo] [Final chorus] Erase, replace We see your game We won’t be silent We won’t be changed You take the past We take it back No more shadows No more masks We remember We stand, we rise You won’t erase us This time [Outro] Write what you want Bury the truth We are the memory You can’t remove
