Blood On My Shoes

You look smart but that's not enough

You need a course in attitude, nobody's fussed

You can spend all your days planning what to buy

And then the signs all spin around, you'll pay your debts in time

You wanna shake, shake, shake to fit in all that much

There seem to be holes in everything his cold hands touch

And we'll take, take, take and swallow the whole way down

We may fall forever but we won't fall down

We'll, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, woah, oh

Lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, woah, oh and it's on

There's blood on my shoes

Nobody knows

Because of you

Where did you go?

Where did you go?

Nobody knows

Where did you go?

You're pretty, so pretty

And if somebody loves you then leave us alone

All the rich get richer but still they cry

They sing the city is after us and we don't know why

Profound is the debt, the debt you owe

You owe it to sorrow and sorrow you owe

For when we're down the ship is all you've ever known

You go to glamor for the glamor but it's never your own, so alone

There's blood on my shoes

Nobody knows

Because of you

Where did you go?

Where did you go?

Nobody knows

Where did you go?

With our cock-eyed wistful vision we're oblivious

To all the hell we've raised, baby, that's how it should stay

When we don't feel change or pain or hate or love

We're going to reach for the sedative but it's never enough

For our fake, fake spirit and our masquerade

We have so many colors but still we dwell in the shade

I play the pugilist, the apathist in so many ways

It's always tomorrow or never, forever and a day, so alone

There's blood on my shoes

Nobody knows

Because of you

Where did you go?

Where did you go?

Nobody knows

Where did you go?
