Slippin’ Shoes

I was feeling raped by my desire to give

So much that I had to lose

But giving isn’t something you can choose

When time lies bare

Hey, we could put on our shoes

We can celebrate while our hearts break and go laughing through that noose

Hey, we could put our shoes back on

And trample down the flowers that grow on the ones we loved

I hear you fell off your shoes

Running into town there was so much you had to do

In a crowded station too

Crying on your knees

Hey, we could put on our shoes

We can celebrate while our hearts break and go laughing through that noose

Hey, we could put our shoes back on

And trample down the flowers that grow on the ones we loved

Running, running, running into that blue

Dancing, dancing, dancing the party through

It’s a party for our demise

Hey, we could put on our shoes

We can celebrate while our hearts break and go laughing through that noose

Hey, we could put our shoes back on

And trample down the flowers that grow on the ones we loved

Hey, we could melt them down for glue

Those horses that once carried our dreamings in that same old blue
