When I was younger, I ran barefoot, Innocent and happy. As I got older, I began wearing shoes, Because that was 'cool' They hurt my feet, And killed my innocence. They drew me to the edge of a cliff And as I walked along it's edge, I tripped over A stupid shoelace, And now I am falling, Dreading hitting the ground, All so I could be 'cool'

Stupid Shoelaces
When I was younger, I ran barefoot, Innocent and happy. As I got older, I began wearing shoes, Because that was 'cool' They hurt my feet, And killed my innocence. They drew me to the edge of a cliff And as I walked along it's edge, I tripped over A stupid shoelace, And now I am falling, Dreading hitting the ground, All so I could be 'cool'
