It's like i never thought that I would see the end I think i'm too involved To follow you again And all the things that fly Around inside my head I'm hoping i can free The light that can't pretend I was hoping You were saying I was just like you You won't take me You won't make me Out to be like you It's all the time i spent I lived inside of you And if you lied to me Pretend to see it through And all the simple things That made it all come true I'd never bend the rules to be you I was hoping You were saying I was just like you You won't take me You won't make me Out to be like you I won't be there if you want me Give up the guns Give up the drugs Give up the ones you need to love Give up the rain Give up the sun Give up the life you need to run I was hoping You were saying I was just like you You won't take me You won't make me Out to be like you You won't take me You won't make me Out to be like you (x2)
