When I walk in your shoes
I understand a man confused
There must have been but I donīt care
I feel the way your soul does there
Darling they empathise
Looking through your bloodshot eyes
And I know you youīre so frustrated
Above we all become what we once hated
Be slight nobody can be that wise
I canīt help ya if you wonīt help yourself
I canīt help ya if you donīt help yourself
You can only get so much from someone yeah
You can get so much from me
I canīt help ya if you wonīt help yourself
Youīve got a degree a in philosophy
So you think youīre cleverer than me
But Iīm not just some drama queen
Cos itīs where youīre at not where youīve been
So what do you expect from me
To hold your head above the sea
And there are you even though youīre bigger
Cos donīt you know you crush my tiny figure
And anyway weīre still so young
And this isnīt yet the day
I canīt help ya if you wonīt help yourself
I canīt help ya if you donīt help yourself
You can only get so much from someone yeah
I canīt help ya if you wonīt help yourself
You might be twenty-five but in my mind
I see you at sixteen years or most of the time
And Iīm just a child and youīre full grown
And no Iīm nothing like Iīve ever known yeah
Iīm nothing like Iīve ever known
