These Footsteps

I saw his eyes starin' through the door
They were a heavy red, rabid and forlorn
9 A.M., he hadn't slept in days
It was his first time back and the last I saw his face

Mama grabbed a plate from off the shelf
I saw it break in half, her tears he never felt
And there I stood with all he left behind
I tried so hard but I fell right down the line

'Cause these footsteps go 'round and 'round
One man's tracks are gonna weigh you down
I never thought I'd walk that same cold ground
But these footsteps, they go 'round and 'round

Lookin' out at all the friends I knew
It just never felt like they would see me through
So I turned my back, disguised in my own skin
I'm just a stranger now to everywhere I've been

'Cause these footsteps go 'round and 'round
One man's tracks are gonna weigh you down
I never thought I'd walk that same cold ground
But these footsteps, they go 'round and 'round

'Cause these footsteps go 'round and 'round
One man's tracks are gonna weigh you down
I never thought I'd walk that same cold ground
But these footsteps, they go 'round and 'round
