The Other Shoe - ****ed Up

"We're 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 options offered 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

The 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 "

"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 "

"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 can fill that hole in my chest

It can't be comfortable when the whole thing's about 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 some 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 you know the whole thing is about to fall

"We're dying on the inside "

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

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

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

Fall

"We're dying on the inside "

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

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

"We're dying on the inside "
