One Foot

[Verse 1] I'm standing in Brooklyn just waiting for something to happen I can’t help but love thinking that everyone doesn’t get it To my left there’s a window Where did I go? My reflection just blends in to rows of clothes and bad ideas But ideas nonetheless in a song [Hook] I put one foot in front of the other one I don’t need a new love or a new life just a better place to die I put one foot in front of the other one I don’t need a new love or a new life just a better place to die I put one foot in front of the other one I don’t need a new love or a new life just a better place to die [Verse 2] I happen to stumble upon a chapel last night And I can’t help but back up when I think of what’s happens inside I got friends locked in boxes. And no way to live But you call it a sin. Isn’t up to them After all, after all I thought we were all your children But I will die for my own sins thanks a lot We’ll raise up ourselves thanks for nothing at all So up off the ground up for fathers and nothing but dust now [Hook] [Verse 3] Maybe I should learn to shut my mouth I am over twenty-five and I can’t make a name for myself Some nights I break down and cry I’m lucky that my father’s still alive He’s been fighting all his life and if this is all I’ve ever known Then may his soul live on forever in my song [Hook] [Outro] In front of the other one In front of the other one Just a better place to die
