Concrete Shoes

You try
To live a private life
Hold your own inside your waltz
Like Ray Kroc

Now you're singing you a different tune
Try to hide that you're walking in concrete shoes

I try to make sense of my heart beating fast
Why does my heart beat fast
I take an aspirin for a quick fix
And then I choke on it

Never made a lick of sense
That everyone I ever knew
Just couldn't see the evidence

I swallow my pride
Grab my regrets
Hang them to dry
The line outside

Now you're singing you a different tune
Ain't it good that you're walking in concrete shoes

So I'm at the afterparty
You're not too jazzed to see me
You know I don't crash easy

Got locked in the model home
You found a way to phone home
We took that left in Stockholm

You try
To live a righteous life
Hold your own inside your faults
Like Jesus

Now you're singing you a different tune
Try to hide that you're walking in concrete shoes
Yeah you're singing you a different tune
Ain't it funny you're walking in concrete shoes
