One Foot

歌詞

i'm standing in brooklyn just waiting for something to happen i can't help but look thinking that everyone doesn't get it to my left is a window where did i go? my reflection just blends in to rows of clothes and bad ideas but ideas nonetheless and so i'll put one foot in front of the other one i don't need a new love, or a new life just a better place to die i'll put one foot in front of the other one i don't need a new love, or a new life just a better place to die i happened to stumble upon a chapel last night and i can't help but back up when i think of what happens inside i've got friends locked in boxes that's no way to live (what you're calling a sin) isn't up to them after all, (after all) i thought we were all your children but i will die for my own sins thanks a lot we will rise up ourselves thanks for nothing at all so up off the ground our forefathers are nothing but dust now i'll put one foot in front of the other one i don't need a new love, or a new life just a better place to die i'll put one foot in front of the other one i don't need a new love, or a new life just a better place to die maybe i should learn to shut my mouth i am over 25 and i can't make a name for myself some nights i break down and cry i'm lucky that my father's still alive he's been fighting all his life and if this is all i've ever known then may his soul live on forever in my songs i'll put one foot in front of the other one i don't need a new love, or a new life just a better place to die i'll put one foot in front of the other one i don't need a new love, or a new life just a better place to die in front of the other one in front of the other one just a better place to die
