WRONG SHOES
Wrong Shoes
Whatever happened to, I'll see how I feel
Reflecting on a shift in attitude or emotions, uncertain about feelings
Can't keep it bottled up and hope it's not real
Unable to suppress emotions, facing the reality of a situation
We hit a few stop signs along the way, but ignored the red lights
Encountering obstacles and challenges but disregarding warnings
You could be twisted about it
Contemplating a situation with emotional turmoil
You could be reckless, I doubt it
Doubting the likelihood of reckless behavior
And I wonder when I'll see you again
Wondering about the next meeting with someone
Cause you're a different you in front of your friends
Noticing a different persona when with friends
There's a stranger wearing all of your clothes
Observing someone wearing familiar clothing but feeling like a stranger
You're a stranger but everybody knows
Being recognized as a stranger despite being known
That it's you, in the wrong shoes
Identifying the person as the one in the wrong shoes
You promised the last time would be the last
Recalling a promise that was believed to be the last time
I believed your bad habits were all in the past
Acknowledging past bad habits and expecting improvement
Never expect your perfection it's true, but we did all this for you
Realizing efforts made for someone's benefit, despite imperfections
Go be twisted about it
Encouraging someone to confront the emotional turmoil
Go be reckless, I doubt it
Expressing doubt about the likelihood of reckless behavior
And I wonder when I'll see you again
Wondering about the next meeting, anticipating a different persona
Cause you're a different you in front of me
Noting a change in the person's behavior when together
There's a stranger wearing all of your clothes
Observing someone as a stranger in familiar clothing
You're a stranger but everybody knows
Recognizing someone as a stranger despite being known to all
That it's you
Emphasizing the identity of the person in the wrong shoes
That it's you
Reiterating the recognition of the person's misstep
That it's you, in the wrong shoes
Affirming that the person is indeed in the wrong shoes
And I tried to realise what it meant then, for me
Attempting to understand the significance of past events for oneself
What it meant then, for me
Reflecting on the personal impact of past events
There's a stranger wearing all of your clothes
Observing someone as a stranger in familiar clothing (repeated)
You're a stranger but everybody knows
Recognizing someone as a stranger despite being known to all (repeated)
That it's you in the wrong shoes
Reiterating the identity of the person in the wrong shoes (repeated)
