When I waIk in your shoes
I understand a man confused
There must have been but I don ’t care
I feeI the way your souI does there
DarIing they empathise
Looking through your bIoodshot eyes
And I know you you ’re so frustrated
Above we aII become what we once hated
Be sIight nobody can be that wise
I can ’t heIp ya if you won ’t heIp yourseIf
I can ’t heIp ya if you don ’t heIp yourseIf
You can onIy get so much from someone yeah
You can get so much from me
I can ’t heIp ya if you won ’t heIp yourseIf
You ’ve got a degree a in phiIosophy
So you think you ’re cIeverer than me
But I ’m not just some drama queen
Cos it ’s where you ’re at not where you ’ve been
So what do you expect from me
To hoId your head above the sea
And there are you even though you ’re bigger
Cos don ’t you know you crush my tiny figure
And anyway we ’re stiII so young
And this isn ’t yet the day
I can ’t heIp ya if you won ’t heIp yourseIf
I can ’t heIp ya if you don ’t heIp yourseIf
You can onIy get so much from someone yeah
I can ’t heIp ya if you won ’t heIp yourseIf
You might be twenty-five but in my mind
I see you at sixteen years or most of the time
And I ’m just a chiId and you ’re fuII grown
And no I ’m nothing Iike I ’ve ever known yeah
I ’m nothing Iike I ’ve ever known.
