Depeche Mode – Walking in my shoes Lyric

aus dem Album Songs of faith and devotion

I would tell you about the things they put me through
the pain I've been subjected to
but the lord himself would have blush
the countless feasts laid at my feet
forbidden fruits for me to eat
but I think your pulse would start to rush

Now I'm not looking for absolution forgiveness for the things I do
but before you come to any conclussions
try walking in my shoes try walking in my shoes

You'll stumble in my footsteps keep the same appointments I kept
if you try walking in my shoes if you try walking in my shoes

Morality would frown upon decency look down upon
the scapegoat fate's made of me but I promise now my judge and jurors
my intentions couldn't have been purer my case is easy to see

I'm not looking for a clearer conscience
peace of mind after what I've been through
and before we talk of any repentance
try walking in my shoes try walking in my shoes

You'll stumble in my footsteps keep the same appointments I kept
if you try walking in my shoes if you try walking in my shoes
try walking in my shoes

Now I'm not looking for absolution forgiveness for the things I do
but before you come to any conclusions
try walking in my shoes try walking in my shoes

You'd stumble in my footsteps keep the same appointments I kept
if you try walking in my shoes
you'd stumble in my footsteps keep the same appointments I kept
if you try walking in my shoes try walking in my shoes
if you try walking in my shoes try walking in my shoes
