Placeholder Lyrics by L Devine

Digital Heartifacts

2024

[Intro]
Ooh-ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh

[Verse 1]
You were always somewhere else
I never know how to help
Thought I was closing the gap
But then you took a step back
I'm not a healer at all
I knew it's never long haul
I know you think about them
I know it's still about them

[Chorus]
Hi, I know you've been a victim of
The pain you put me through (The pain you put me through)
So, why do I let it get this far?
I always knew (I always knew)
Placeholder, I fill the seat
Won't be long before you misplace me
Buy my time, then sell me cheap
I see clearly that it won't be me

[Post-Chorus]
Ah-ah, ah-ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah

[Verse 2]
Saw you were struggling to breathe
And then you found a quick relief
But I can tell it's wearing off
And that I'm just an afterthought
I'll be a face that you forget
I'll carry you onto the rest
'Cause everybody's taking turns
Making each other hurt

[Chorus]
Hi, I know you've been a victim of
The pain you put me through (The pain you put me through)
So, why do I let it get this far?
I always knew (I always knew)
Placeholder, I fill the seat
Won't be long before you misplace me
Buy my time, then sell me cheap
I see clearly that it won't be me

[Post-Chorus]
Ah-ah, ah-ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah

[Outro]
Placeholder, I fill the seat
Won't be long before you misplace me
Buy my time (Buy my time), then sell me cheap (Sell me cheap)
I see clearly that it won't be me
