In My Shoes

[Title: In My Shoes] [Intro] Oh oh oh… Come a little closer… But watch where you step… Yeah yeah… [Verse 1] Come walk with me down into my darkness, only if you’re truly ready for this. The air turns cold, the sky goes gray, down here the faces slowly fade away. Every step echoes through loneliness, through old wounds and brokenness. The path is narrow, the light so far, my demons still know exactly where you are. [Pre-Chorus] And if you think this is just a dream, listen closely to the screams. Even the wind falls silent here, that’s why the inner child is crystal clear. [Chorus] If you wanna see my demons crawl, you gotta walk in my shoes through it all. Through empty hallways without light, with sadness written in my eyes. You gotta feel a burning soul, when nobody sees you losing control. Only when you walk through hell with me, you’ll understand the man I came to be. [Verse 2] Deeper down into the dark we go, the ground is sharp beneath and cold. The walls keep whispering my name, like they wanna keep me here in chains. I wear my scars like tattered clothes, hidden where nobody ever goes. Outside they laugh, outside they shine, while everything inside me slowly dies. [Pre-Chorus] And if you hear children cry below, stay quiet… don’t let them know. Their echoes sound so weak and small, like nobody cared for them at all. [Chorus] If you wanna see my demons crawl, you gotta walk in my shoes through it all. Through empty hallways without light, with sadness written in my eyes. You gotta feel a burning soul, when nobody sees you losing control. Only when you walk through hell with me, you’ll understand the man I came to be. [Bridge] And if inside this grave of mine you hear a little child still cry, please don’t be frightened by the sound… It’s just my inner child alone, living here for way too long. Nobody looked beneath my skin, nobody saw how broken I had been. [Breakdown] Maybe I was never wanted… I’m so tired… So cold… inside… [Final Chorus] If you wanna see my demons crawl, you gotta walk in my shoes through it all. Through all the pain and endless night, that slowly pulls me from the light. But if you stay until the end, instead of turning silent like them, you might still find beneath the pain a little spark that still remains. [Outro] Oh oh oh… Deep down in the dark tonight… a little child still cries… for love and light… Copyright Notice This text is protected by copyright and constitutes an original work.
