The Other Shoe Lyrics

We're dying on the inside
Dying on the inside
Dying on the inside
Dying on the inside

Right on time here's the other shoe
Clouds overhead start to loom
Some born to win others fated to lose
From the options we must choose
My friend dread is right on time, can't start to think that it is fine
Watch the tower as it starts to teeter
New lyrics follow the same old meter

It can't be comfortable when the whole thing's about to fall

We're dying on the inside
Dying on the inside
Dying on the inside
Dying on the inside

Butterflies, my stomach starts to heave
What joyous blunder waits for me?
Finished first but I missed the start
Hitched the mule behind the cart
Take the rose by the thorns
Hope for sun, but here's the storm
So head outside and wait for rain
Watch it all go down the drain

It can't be comfortable when the whole thing's about to fall

We're dying on the inside
Dying on the inside
Dying on the inside
Dying on the inside

We settle in but it's time to go, taken to sea by the undertow
Love the smell but I hate the taste
Feeling good is such a waste
Loved the book but I hate the end, gained a lover but I lost a friend
Straight to worst, from the best
Nothing fills that hole in my chest

It can't be comfortable when the whole thing's about to fall

To make things worse, it all goes so fast and we try to hold on as they go past
We need a Peter, we get a Paul, at least Judas had the balls
To make a move on these building doubts about how this messiah thing would shake out
I feel the nail against my skin, wait for the hammer to drive it in

It can't be comfortable when the whole thing is about to fall

We're dying on the inside
Dying on the inside
Dying on the inside
Dying on the inside
Dying on the inside
Dying on the inside
Dying on the inside
Dying on the inside

It can't be comfortable when the whole thing is about to
It can't be comfortable when the whole thing is about to
It can't be comfortable when the whole thing is about to fall

Come on

We're dying on the inside
Dying on the inside
Dying on the inside
Dying on the inside

Dying on the inside
Dying on the inside
Dying on the inside
Dying on the inside

Dying on the inside
Dying on the inside
Dying on the inside
Dying on the inside

Dying on the inside
Dying on the inside
Dying on the inside
Dying on the inside

It can't be comfortable when the whole thing is about to
It can't be comfortable when the whole thing is about to fall

We're dying on the inside
Dying on the inside
Dying on the inside
Dying on the inside
Dying on the inside
