Refuge Lyrics

Foundation

Need a fuckin' foundation

Buildin' me a replacement

Turn another stone, I ain't standin' alone

In your basement

With that shadow you're facin'

She look like a time wasted

Throw another stone, I ain't standin' alone

She'll listen close when you don't know

And yearn behind a haunted door

It's not my soul she's lookin' for

The one who lived here long before

When you were my refuge

You were my refuge

You were my refuge

You were my, you were my

Yeah, you were my refuge

You were my refuge

You were my refuge

You were my, you were my

Yeah, you were my refuge

Replacement

Ya got a fuckin' replacement

'Nother lover like quicksand

And ya barely took the band off the fuckin' nightstand

And you're hiding in an address

An old face that ya fastened

A mistake that ya fashioned

Runnin' over me like you can't see

You listen close when we don't know

And yearn behind a haunted door

And in our dreams you're screamin' for

The bedroom that you once adored

When you were my refuge (Oh you were my refuge)

You were my refuge (Oh you were my refuge)

You were my refuge (Oh, baby, my refuge)

You were my, you were my (I could not refuse)

Yeah, you were my refuge (My refuge)

You were my refuge (Oh you were my refuge)

You were my refuge (Oh, baby, my refuge)

You were my, you were my (I could not refuse)

Yeah, you were my refuge

Smoke it lingers here and there

And echoes in the closet where

Ya kept your makeup, and your hair

And even in the vanity chair

The furniture ya left behind

Is evidence of happy times

Ya hid the pain down deep inside

Your sheets and pillow stained with wine

When you were my refuge (Oh you were my refuge)

You were my refuge (Oh you were my refuge)

You were my refuge (Oh, baby, my refuge)

You were my, you were my (I could not refuse)

Yeah, you were my refuge (My refuge)

You were my refuge (Oh you were my refuge)

You were my refuge (Oh, baby, my refuge)

You were my, you were my (I could not refuse)

Yeah, you were my refuge

The soul ya loved, and she adored

The memories live in the floors

And in our dreams, and in our sheets

And in our kitchen cabinets

They called it "House of Refuge"

A place where she can start anew

Painted the walls yellow, and blue

To hide the bottle that she threw

Oo

Oo

Oh

Hm

Hm

Hm
