Her Shoes Lyrics

If I put myself in your shoes

I probably wouldn't be able to walk a mile

That's why I would crawl

Through it all

Through all of my flaws and all of my wrongs

It's amazing how strong you are to have survived the rain that I put you in

The way you found peace in the middle of the hurricane

You must have forecaster in your blood

You must have earthquake in your hugs

Because I can feel them even when I can't see you

When I put myself in your shoes

I can't even stand

How can I call myself a man

When I can't even stick to the plan of loving you through my own pain

How can I ask for respect as I fail to do the same

Why was I so lame

Why is it even as I write these words

Alone on this living room couch

It's hard to be vulnerable in front of my damn self

Like nobody is even here but me and I'm still denying where I sent you

But as I put myself in your shoes

I see it was a hellish place

I should feel disgrace

I'm putting myself in your shoes and I can't even look myself in the face

It's something about not being shit

That makes you start growing up faster

When you finally start smelling it

I'm putting myself in your shoes

And these motherfuckers hurt

Because they're six sizes too small

But Imma wear them anyway

I will put myself through the pain

So I never forget how difficult your walk is

How hard it is to trust again

To love again

To make amends

To look at me as a true friend

To heal what has been broken

To unhear what you heard

To unseen what you saw

To rethink what you believe

To give a second chance after the first one

Felt like strike three

To wonder if I'll repeat like the others

To find peace where war has already started

Well baby, I feel that pain

I feel that pain and It's driving me insane

That's why I had to get out and walk

In your shoes in the middle of the lane

But this don't hurt like a car accident

This is like getting hit by a train of regret

I thought I knew exactly how you felt

But it turns out my imagination

Was six sizes too small

My confidence, ten times too big

All I had to do was first sit down

Shut the fuck up and fully accept what I did to hurt you

I didn't mean to hurt you but I did

I didn't mean to kill the vibe but

Now I'm dead in your head

That accident should have killed me

I should've thought before I acted

I should've taken more practice

Putting myself in your shoes

So I could fully fathom what you had

To spend all this time trying to unimagine

When I do the math on all my failed relationships

I see the common denominator is me, damn

And all I want to do is make it right

But what does that even look like

And all I want to do is make it right

But what does that even look like

I don't even know

But I'll at least start by putting myself

In your shoes

So that way you know you don't have to take this walk alone
