Just Like Me Lyrics

Just Like Me lyrics

She seemed almost demented 

 as she frantically repented 

 for the crime in which she filled her empty bowl, 

 it was empty like her soul 

 She kneeled inside the confession booth, 

 and she told that holy man the truth 

 but the booth was empty, 

 frozen black as coal, 

 it was damp and cold. 

 

 Where are you gonna run to now? 

 You lost what faith you had somehow 

 Your show is over, 

 it's time to take a bow 

 Where are you gonna run to now? 

 

 She spends her nights with lonely men 

 and she goes too far every now and then. 

 But it's her longest running show 

 and the oldest job around, 

 they say she's the best in town. 

 

 Where are you gonna run to now? 

 You lost what pride you had somehow 

 Your show is over, 

 it's time to take a bow 

 Where are you gonna run to now? 

 

 Now in 5 more years she'll be 23 

 And in a lot of ways she's just like me 

 She gives away her body, 

 I give away my soul. 

 We're always searching for life's treasures to unfold. 

 We give it all to you 

 yet we have no pot of gold. 

 

 So where are we gonna run to now? 

 We lost what love we had somehow, 

 we're on this one way highway 

 until the bitter end 

 but where are we gonna run to then?
