Every good venue that closes down
Rips another piece from the heart of the town 
A  city is more than fancy flats
Generic stores and chains of  coffee shops
 
I remember the place so  well,
Old  posters on the wall behind the  stage
You had to breath in to squeeze in the hall
While the  band pumped out  power chords and  rage
Saw them later on  TV
But where was the passion they had on that stage.

Used to be more than bricks
It’s where we grew together, had fun together
Used to be more than bricks
But it’s back to  bricks  today  
Every good venue that closes down
Rips another piece from the heart of the town 
A city is more than fancy flats
Generic stores and chains of  coffee shops
 
I remember the bar so  well,
Crowded round the table talking  rubbish double speed
Don’t remember all that we said
It was always about music and the politics of   greed.
Sometimes met up in other pubs
But it wasn’t the same, it wasn’t our place

used to be more than bricks
It’s where we grew together, had fun together
Used to be more than bricks
But it’s back to bricks today
just a pile of bricks today
