Just Like Them

No one's home
She's all alone
Her secrets are weighing her down
What is love she asks
As she watched herself get dressed
Wondered if love would come around
She'd fall to her knees
Pray somebody please
Save her from herself
She'd fall to her knees
Pray somebody please
Save her from herself

She couldn't understand
Why she couldn't keep a man
She'd say she didn't need nobody
By her side
She was broken
And time wasn't healing
And lying lost its power
To keep her alive

She'd fall to her knees
Pray somebody please
Save her from herself
She'd fall to her knees
Praying somebody please
Save her from herself

She knows fear
How they know love
And freedom's still not free enough
And nobody knows she feels so different
How much time 'till she can't fake it
She wishes she could love just like them
Like them
Mm'yeah
Just like them
Yeah
Fourteen years old
A man took off her clothes
He said
This is what love should feel like
She then promised herself
She'd never need nobody else
And grew addicted to protecting herself
Now she doesn't know how to love
No no no love
No

Somebody teach her how to love
And she knows fear
How they know love
And freedom's still not free enough
And nobody knows she feels so different
How much time till she can't fake it
She wishes she could love just like them
Or love at all
