Tired Shoes (Things I Prayed For Album Version) - Eli
Welcome to the salvage store
Last chance for damaged goods;
By now you know the hype was all a lie
You see I've been here for a while
Stacking souls in different piles
You can call me caretaker if you like
Stilettos on the left side wingtips on my right
The rest of them fall somewhere in between
Well we all wear out with use
And our souls take such abuse
Tired shoes can't remember what they've seen
Every size and color designer brand or plain
Now they share each others company;
You see I try the best I can
To bring healing with these hands
A second chance before they rest in peace
Stilettos on the left side wingtips on my right
The rest of them fall somewhere in between
Well we all wear out with use
And our souls take such abuse
Tired shoes can't remember what they've seen
As I watched the old caretaker
Wearing sandals made from scraps;
It was clear to me
I was unworthy to undo their straps
Stilettos on the left side wingtips on my right
The rest of them fall somewhere in between
Well we all wear out with use
And our souls take such abuse
Tired shoes can't remember what they've seen
Well we all wear out with use
And our souls take such abuse
Tired shoes give your souls to him
