Old ballet shoes tossed in the corner.
|
I put my cigarette out on the floor.
|
Same old broken down face in the mirror,
|
and fist sized hole in the door.
|
|
If only I could see past myself
|
these ankles keep twisting in vain
|
and the older I get the more things
|
I let be to blame.
|
|
|
Same old God, same old prayer.
|
I keep repeating myself but I'm not getting anywhere.
|
|
|
There's that old letter you wrote me.
|
You said you wanted to be a star.
|
Same old broken down car in the driveway,
|
I guess we didn't get too far.
|
|
|
If only I could see past myself,
|
these keys they keep turning in vain,
|
and the older I get the more things I let be to blame.
|
Same old God, same old prayer.
|
I keep repeating myself but I'm not getting anywhere.
|
|
|
If only I Keep talking to that same old God.
