What It's Like

I never thought you were someone
To prey on the weak
I never thought I was someone
You’d kick in the teeth
(Now I know)
I get the the hurt I get the blame
You rub the dirt across my name
When you fall from your cross
And you down on your knees
Then you’ll know what it’s like,
What it’s like to be me
You don’t know what it’s like,
What it’s like to be me
You don’t know what it’s like,
What it’s like to be me
You don’t know what it’s like,
To be down on your knees
What it’s like,
What it’s like.
What it’s like to be me
Hold me down like I’m not worth
The air the you breath
(breath, breath, breath)
Beat me down ground you’re
To proud to let me stand beside
You on my feet
You don’t know what it’s like,
What it’s like to be me
You don’t know what it’s like,
What it’s like to be me
You don’t know what it’s like,
To be down on your knees
What it’s like,
What it’s like,
What it’s like to be me
Yeah yeah
Beat down again and again
What’s it like to be
Yeah yeah
Beat down again and again
You’ve smothered me for so long
I’m buried in all your blame
I get the the hurt I get the blame
You’ve rub the dirt across my name
You’ve shadowed me for so long
I’m covered in all your shame
I get the the hurt I get the blame
You rub the dirt across my name
Despite all the things you’ve done
You’ll never bring me down again
When you fall from your cross
And you’re down on you knees
Then you’ll know what it’s like
What it’s like to be me
Yeah yeah
Beat down again and again
What’s it like to be
Yeah yeah
Beat down again and again
You don’t know what it’s like,
What it’s like to be me
You don’t know what it’s like,
What it’s like to be me
What it’s like,
What it’s like,
What it’s like to be me
What it’s like,
What it’s like,
What it’s like to be
Down on your knees
What it’s like,
What it’s like,
What it’s like to be me!
