Lyrics
To get up and walk away would be too easy
So stay and stand your ground just watch your mouth with me
On the back of every right, there's a wrong looming
So here you and I should tread as soft
As these razorblades for boots will let be
Have you ever tried to step in my shoes?
Have you ever tried to balance that beam?
And if you ever try to fit in my shoes
They'll never be quite as soft as they seem
Thought of unabashed honesty would be ideal
But a prophet did once say that honesty's a lonely word
So where do we go from here? Abandon ship now
My problem is you make me melt and I don't want to be frozen anymore
Have you ever tried to step in my shoes?
Have you ever tried to balance that beam?
And if you ever try to fit in my shoes
They'll never be quite as soft as they seem
Ho-oh-oh-oh
No, no, oh-oh, no, no
Uh-uh
Have you ever, have you ever tried to
I have never, I have never tried to
Have you ever tried to step in my shoes?
Have you ever tried to balance that beam?
And if you ever try to fit in my shoes
They'll never be quite as soft as they seem
Oh-oh-oh, yeah
Ah-ah-oh, yeah
Ah-ah
Uh
