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?
