Recognize

Feel a mess, but long nights set the mood Watching others drink too much, much too soon Started sometime in the afternoon, I’m fading You like those with nothing left to lose Smoking cigarettes and breaking rules Look around no mirrors in the room But I can see myself in you You found a life in the night You fall asleep till the light You do what you think is right And couldn’t care what others like Told your love, “Life’s a mess Damned if you don’t, and damned if you do” Caught your eyes across the room I can see myself in you You can’t remember names in the morning (I can see myself in you) Good times ain’t always good to you (I can see myself in you) Gone somewhere but don’t know where you’re going (I can see myself in you) You’re here, you’re gone with your friends And they don’t know how to go home I’m only here, cause my boys are here And they don’t know how to go alone They said it’s good to get out the house No one cares, I’m jaded, it’s true You don’t have to say it, you are too Cause I can see myself in you I found a life in the night I fall asleep till the light I do what I think is right And couldn’t care what others like Told my love, “Life’s a mess Damned if I don’t, and damned if I do” Noticed you from across the room I can see myself in you You can’t remember names in the morning (I can see myself in you) Good times ain’t always good to you (I can see myself in you) Gone somewhere but don’t know where you’re going (I can see myself in you)
