Hey, I'm Just Like You lyrics
Stranded and I'm so lost, my mind is wired
Overcome and overdone, my fate is on fire
Eat the drugs and dance to screaming in my head
I'm so happy that we're friends, me and you
I never feel invisible when you're around
With you, I don't blend in with the millions
Together in the light, I swear all for you
Tonight in the dark, we're seeing colors
Hey, I'm just like you
A little messed up and blue
Hey, I'm just like you
Not sure what the fuck I'm to do
We're headstrong tonight (Tonight, tonight)
Racing through the streets 'til we fly
Gold-colored prisms of light (The light, the light)
Headstrong tonight
Sometimes, we get so tired of pretending like you're so strong
Everyone you love has gone and decided that you're so wrong
I always feel invincible when you're around
You and me against the millions
Together in the light, I swear all for you
Tonight in the dark, we're seeing colors
Hey, I'm just like you
A little messed up and blue
Hey, I'm just like you
Not sure what the fuck I'm to do
We're headstrong tonight (Tonight, tonight)
Racing through the streets 'till we fly
Gold-colored prisms of light (The light, the light)
Headstrong tonight
We're headstrong tonight (Tonight, tonight)
Racing through the streets 'til we fly
Gold-colored prisms of light (The light, the light)
Headstrong tonight

Tegan & Sara official bio:
While writing High School, Tegan and Sara discovered two cassette tapes with dozens of the first songs they ever wrote between the ages of 15 and 17 - tapes that had been unheard for twenty years. Defiant and melodramatic, the melodies and lyrics on these rough tapes captured the exultation and grief of first loves, first losses, ecstatic kiss-offs, and psychedelic tributes to friendship. Hey, I'm Just Like You is made up entirely of new studio recordings of those early songs, recasting Tegan and Sara’s remarkable innate songwriting talents as teenagers, and allowing these previously unreleased songs to benefit from the studio expertise they have gained in the past two decades as professional musicians.
“This is a record we never could have made as teenagers, full of songs we never could have written as adults,” says Tegan. Adds Sara, “With only minor tweaks to lyrics and structure, we tried to remain true to the original essence of each song.”
During the course of their twenty-year career, Tegan and Sara Quin have sold well over one million records and released eight studio albums. Tegan And Sara have have received three Juno Awards, a Grammy nomination, and a Governor General’s Performing Arts Award (Canada’s highest national honor in the arts). They have performed on some of the world’s biggest stages, from Coachella to the Academy Awards. In 2016 they created the Tegan and Sara Foundation, which fights for health, economic justice, and representation for LGBTQ+ girls and women. The sisters currently reside in Vancouver, British Columbia, and split their time between there and Los Angeles, California.
