I had shoes full of holes 
When you first took me in 
The path that you led 
Wasn't straight to your bed 
There's no cots to sleep in 
And you showed me 
Who I was running from 
As if I had not known all along

 
Oh my old feet 
They know this hard street 
Stay like old friends 
You're flat on the ground 
There's no further down 
There's no cots to sleep in 
So come in 
Leave them outside the door 
Tear off the paper 
Tear off the carpet 
Off the floor 

Chorus: 

And I know you're hurting 

And I can't be there for you 

And I know you're hurting 

And I can't be there no more

I had shoes full of holes 
When you first took me in 
I had calluses, not sores 
And I'd like to keep them 
So go turn those sheets 
Get back on the street 
There's nothing more I can bring to you 
See I'm scared of the door 
Afraid of the floor 
Well, I'll go and walk right through 
And I'll show you 
Who I've been running from 
It's the feeling of waking 
And it's gone 

Chorus

I had shoes full of holes 
When you first took me in 
I had calluses, not sores 
And I'd like to keep them 
Oh now your feet 
They know this hard street 
They're like old friends 
You're flat on the ground 
There's no further down 
There's no cots to sleep in 
So come in 
Leave them outside the door 
Tear off the paper 
Tear off the carpet 
Off the floor 

Chorus

I had shoes full of holes 
When you first took me in 
I had calluses, not sores 
And I'd like to keep them 
So go turn those sheets 
Get back on the street 
There's nothing more I can bring to you 
See I'm scared of the door 
Afraid of the floor 
Well, I'll go and walk right through 
And I'll show you 
Who I've been running from 
It's the feeling of waking 
And it's gone
