Slip-on Shoes
I keep a bag packed at the ready
And one foot out the door
Don't let myself stay too long or settle in
My favourite shoes are slip-on
So it's faster to run out
You're begging me to try but I'm too stubborn
I say it's just who I am
But I think you can see
These walls around me
Hide a heart that wants to breathe you in
And bring me back to the feeling
Bring me back
It's easier to be heartless
To keep my feelings far away
Put vulnerability behind a lock and throw away the key
So you lose me to my thoughts
I live in a world of grey
Your warrior's hands and lion's heart can't hold all of your love
I say it's just who I am
But I think you can see
These walls around me
Hide a heart that wants to breathe you in
And bring me back to the feeling
Bring me back
Maybe I'm broken
I know you feel that way too
In this messed up world where nothing is certain
It's scary to be with you
But I'll cling to this moment
Gear up for the climb
We've only got a little time on this rock around the sun
So maybe it's who I am
But I think you can see
These walls around me
Hide a heart that wants to breathe you in
And bring me back to the feeling
Bring me back
And one foot out the door
Don't let myself stay too long or settle in
My favourite shoes are slip-on
So it's faster to run out
You're begging me to try but I'm too stubborn
I say it's just who I am
But I think you can see
These walls around me
Hide a heart that wants to breathe you in
And bring me back to the feeling
Bring me back
It's easier to be heartless
To keep my feelings far away
Put vulnerability behind a lock and throw away the key
So you lose me to my thoughts
I live in a world of grey
Your warrior's hands and lion's heart can't hold all of your love
I say it's just who I am
But I think you can see
These walls around me
Hide a heart that wants to breathe you in
And bring me back to the feeling
Bring me back
Maybe I'm broken
I know you feel that way too
In this messed up world where nothing is certain
It's scary to be with you
But I'll cling to this moment
Gear up for the climb
We've only got a little time on this rock around the sun
So maybe it's who I am
But I think you can see
These walls around me
Hide a heart that wants to breathe you in
And bring me back to the feeling
Bring me back
