In Your Shoes - Anna Howie

I can't wait to see you lace your shoes Things were hazy, but that all stopped with you We pass by headstones on a walk I overthink something then I forget I should talk I can't wait to see you go to school I hate that this will happen But I know that it will happen Someone's gonna be cruel I can't believe the stork didn't need a crane One then two then three of you I'm working to be better So that you get to do the same We counted dark spots on the moon The stars were barely visible I know that I should let you Count them far from this city roof 'Cause the sunshine pours out of your mouth and eyes 'Cause the sunshine spills out your mouth and eyes And out onto the floor and I can't see nothing anymore No, I can't see nothing anymore No, I can't see anything no more It fills the sky all the way from the floor And I- And I don't bother looking away from it But I can't see nothing anymore No, I can't see nothing anymore No, I can't see nothing anymore 'Cause it fills the sky all the way from the floor I can't wait to see you go to school I can't make out all the words you say Your sister just makes noises like some sort of bird That I just cannot seem to place I spend too much time out on the deck Staring out at nothing While nothing at all Blankly stares right back And I hope there's still something left for you I can't wait to see which paths you choose So that you can see animals Far away from the stupid city zoo 'Cause the sunshine pours out of your mouth and eyes 'Cause the sunshine spills out your mouth and eyes And out all on the floor and I can't see nothing anymore No, I can't see nothing anymore Well, I can't see nothing anymore It fills the sky all the way from the floor And I- And I don't bother looking away from But I can't see nothing anymore No, I can't see nothing anymore No, I can't see nothing anymore 'Cause it fills the sky all the way from the floor And I can't wait to see you go to school Well, I can't wait to see you lace your shoes (I can't wait to see you go to school) (I can't wait to see which paths you choose) And I can't wait to see you go to school (I can't wait to see you give 'em hell) And I can't wait to see you go to school I can't wait to see you lace your shoes I can't wait to see you lace your shoes

Hangover No closure Turn over, there you are Bad choices Loud noises And taking it way too far Seductress I can't focus You alter what I want Had my chance To cut it off Now we're back at the start I waste all my time Walking sacred lines With you on my mind Though I know that I need to let go, yeah And now that we've said goodbye And there's no more "one more time"s I start to wonder why Why I ever wanted to let go, yeah (You want me to think that you're wild?) (No...) (I promise I won't run away) Call me an addict Baby can I have it? Fuck being right God I want it so badly I can't deny you You know you're my supplier Fuck my pride Already know I'm a buyer I'd change my mind for you, yeah I'd follow what you do, yeah Fuck being right Goddamn I'm an addict Goddamn I'm an addict (He's all I can think of) So much shame In my brain I think we took it too far You found me At my worst Swear I just moved on But I'm finished Decided No more, no I'm done trying Cause one taste here And one bite there And I know that I'll be spending the night there (I've got a hunch I'm never gonna feel no other kind of love) I waste all my time Walking sacred lines With you on my mind Though I know that I need to let go, yeah And now that we've said goodbye And there's no more "one more time"s I start to wonder why Why I ever wanted to let go, yeah Call me an addict Baby can I have it? Fuck being right God I want it so badly I can't deny you You know you're my supplier Fuck my pride Already know I'm a buyer I'd change my mind for you, yeah I'd follow what you do, yeah Fuck being right Goddamn I'm an addict Goddamn I'm an addict Call me an addict Baby can I have it? Fuck being right God I want it so badly I can't deny you You know you're my supplier Fuck my pride Already know I'm a buyer I'd change my mind for you, yeah I'd follow what you do, yeah Fuck being right Goddamn I'm an addict Goddamn I'm an addict Fuck being right God- Fuck being right Goddamn I'm an addict

Lately i've been thinking Lately i've been dreaming with you I'm so resistent to this type of thinking Oh now it's shining through I was alone for the last time Before my nights' vacation with you Alive from the first now i'm denied By the ghost of you Oh you take yourself a photograph and laugh at me Please I know there's little use in crying It's more wide awake and dying than i'm used to I thought we'd walk these streets together Now i'm hoping that I'll never have to meet you Step aside from all this anger And somewhere in between I can feel you Ask me should we try again I'm thinking no yeah It's not what i believe in It's not what i believe in Oh, Won't you take yourself a photograph and laugh at me Please You make yourself a photograph and laugh at me Please No I, wanna taste your love No I... no I No I, just wanna taste your love Oh, no I Standing in your shoes I turn And now you're standing bare in my doorway I only wish that I had been prepared I'm gonna have to go along with your way Just take the plastic camera out It's in the pants you borrowed in the driveway Alive from the first now i'm denied by the ghost of you Make yourself a photograph & laugh at me please Yeah make yourself a photograph & laugh at me please No i want a taste of love no i I was alive from the first now i'm denied by the ghost of you
