People Like Us - Palisades, Garret Rapp

Do you remember the first time that we met?

You were cold as a ghost in a basement

You wanted nothing to do with me or the world around you

You said I’m not someone you wanna waste your time on I said you’re not someone I wanna say goodbye to Funny feeling how it all can flip

Picking you up really picks me up Look at how we turned a spark into a flame

Lighting you up really lights me up And all the pills and sympathy

Won’t replace what you know you need

I know it feels like you’ve got nothing

Bet you didn’t know you were all I see

You said you’re damaged merchandise

and I’ll pay the price, if I let you in You can go and try to push it off all you want

But I’m never giving up

I’ll show you what you’re worth

You said I’m not someone you wanna waste your time on I said you’re not someone I wanna say goodbye to If you’re a fire then I wanna burn

Funny feeling how it all can flip

Picking you up really picks me up Look at how we turned a spark into a flame

Lighting you up really lights me up And all the pills and sympathy

Won’t replace what you know you need

I know it feels like you’ve got nothing

Bet you didn’t know you were all I see

Have I accepted that I will never trust again

When I can’t even seem to trust myself?

How am I ever gonna trust again?

Why do I stay on the roads that keep leading me right back through the hell

I’ve been?

There’s a difference between giving up And knowing when you’ve had enough

Maybe I’m addicted to you because the best kinds of drugs are other people like

us I found out the best kinds of drugs are people just like us Funny feeling how it all can flip

Picking you up really picks me up Look at how we turned a spark into a flame

Lighting you up really lights me up And all the pills and sympathy

Won’t replace what you think you need

I know it feels like you’ve got nothing

Bet you didn’t know you were all I see
