Kids Like Us

Never knew you, wish I did

Other sisters, they show up to school hand in hand

I'm staring again

Born to people who hid their fears

Whisper softly, "I wish that I could disappear"

We learned not to hear

That look I can't help but see

It finds its way into me

And somewhere in your face I saw

All of our family flaws

Our issues they've become our only bond

Just came to quietly discuss

Still counting on your trust

To promise me you won't have kids like us

Another wedding on the lawn

Caught your eye for barely a moment too long

And then it was gone

Catholic family, never planned

Pass the wine and I feel your eyes on my hands

We're drinking again

That look I can't help but see

It finds its way into me

And somewhere in your face I saw

All of the family flaws

Our issues they've become our only bond

Just came to quietly discuss

Still counting on your trust

To promise me you won't have kids like us

And somewhere in your face I saw

All of our family flaws

Our issues they've become our only bond

Just came to quietly discuss

Still counting on your trust

To promise me you won't have kids like us
