Lyrics

[Verse 1]
She walks into the outhouse
The cold night breathes into her face
The flies are standin' still now
The moon, it spills through the place
[Verse 2]
And she starts wonderin' what it's like to be
Liked by everyone and like everyone
Be just like anyone, and just wants to be so
Just like anyone, just like anyone
[Verse 3]
She reaches through the darkness
Her fingers touch the porcelain seat
She spins and pulls her pants down
The cold air holds her like a thief
[Verse 4]
She starts wonderin' what they mean
Do they just mean to be mean?
And thinkin' about the scene
Do they just want to be seen?
Try not to seem so just like anyone
Just like anyone
[Verse 5]
The door comes screechin' open
She walks into the evenin' air
She disappears in the darkness
All's left, the faint smell of her hair
[Verse 6]
She starts wonderin' what it's like to be
Liked by everyone and like everyone
Be just like anyone, and just wants to be so
Just like anyone
And wonderin' what they mean
Do they just mean to be mean?
And thinkin' about the scene
Do they just want to be seen?
Try not seem so just like anyone
[Verse 7]
(Just like anyone)
Just like anyone
(Just like anyone)
Just like anyone
Just like anyone, just like anyone
Just like anyone, just like anyone
Just like anyone, just like anyone
Just like anyone
