They're like Us

J J D Cohen

The little stories and the big ones start
And every quiet tragedy must end
Someday, someone will tell our tale
We thought we had a simple part to play
Confined within a narrow space
But what we feel and do goes far beyond that frame

Being with you was always the best part of me
And you once said you felt the same
In the end, aren't we all the same?

I saw myself in you
You saw yourself in me
Someone like us
With so many hopes and dreams
We can't just let life slip away
We need to love, to fight, to stay
Every small win is worth the pain
And we don't give up in the heavy rain

I saw it in their eyes, forgotten dreams
Just waiting for a chance to live again
They're like us, in stories still unwritten
Full of love and loss
Of quests and questions
Wandering through chapters with no script to follow

Being with you was always the best part of me
And you once said you felt the same
In the end, aren't we all the same?

I saw myself in you
You saw yourself in me
Someone like us
With so many hopes and dreams
We can't just let life slip away
We need to love, to fight, to stay
Every small win is worth the pain
And we don't give up in the heavy rain

In the end
They're someone like us
