"Just like You" is a song by the Canadian band Three Days Grace. It was the second single from their self-titled debut album. In 2004 the song became their first #1 hit on the Billboard Modern Rock Tracks chart. It is about how a person is turning against their mentor claiming they will never be just like them and they are only in the way.

[edit] Music Video

The music video for "Just Like You" features the band playing behind a glass wall. On the other side shows several people wearing identical masks with security guards watching over them. To them, the band is wearing the same blue jumpsuits and masks as they are, and slowly begin to act out in the littlest ways. Such as one man starting to bob his head without anyone else doing the same, only to be threatened by a guard. During the turn around of the song, the glass shatters against the guards and the men and women throw off their masks and the scene turns to that of a rave, with the band playing in front of everyone dressed as themselves. The video ends just as it began, with everyone in the room lined up wearing jumpsuits and masks, as if nothing had ever happened.
