I used to think of myself as a soldier
|
Holding his own against impossible odds
|
Badly outnumbered and caught in a crossfire of devils and gods
|
All I ever wanted to be was free
|
All I ever looked for was what was within my eyes to see
|
Oh, but these days are just like you and me
|
Oh, but these days are just like you and me
|
|
You used to be something I could believe in
|
How could you let me forsake myself so
|
You used to think of your life as a riddle with no answer known
|
All you ever wanted to be was free
|
All you ever looked for was what was within your sights to see
|
Oh, but these days are just like you and me
|
Oh, but these days are just like you and me
|
|
We used to live like there was no tomorrow
|
Tasting our trials a day at a time
|
Crying for justice and laughing at sorrow
|
Such innocent crimes
|
All we ever wanted to be was free
|
All we ever looked for was what was within our sights to see
|
Oh, but these days are just like you and me
|
Oh, but these days are just like you and me
|
Just like you and me
|
You know they're just like you and me
|
