Just Like You

You hide in the shadows to keep out the pain
The light brings with all that rings true
This life you been livin' is a deal that you’ve made
Between the devil and you
To get to that feelin' of feelin' numb
There ain’t nothin' you won’t do
I know that you think you’re the only one
I was just like you
Oh yeah
I was just like you
Oh yeah
I was just like you
I made up my mind a thousand times
To stop my reckless way
But when it came time to not cross that line
I can still hear myself say
I got this, i’m good, it’s under control
What harm can a little taste do
A headful of denial beats logic every time
I was just like you
Oh yeah
I was just like you
Oh yeah
I was just like you
It’s always ended the same
On my knees in heart wrenching pain
I was ready to die
Cause livin this way was insane
I prayed for change
Change came
I know how you feel cause i’ve been there myself
Hopeless and helpless it seemed
Desperate for answers but without out a clue
How to live this life sober and clean
I reached out for someone to show me the way
Who’s gone through what i’ve gone through
He said right now you might not believe in miracles
I was just like you
Oh yeah
I was just like you
Oh yeah
I was just like you
