Intro:
[Verse 1]
Tongue – tied
Talking to my feet
When there’s nothing better than self-defeat
I stop – stall
Try to stand tall
When whatever I say means nothing at all
[Prechorus]
I walk
Through all the steps (in my head)
It made more sense (in my head)
Plain and simple I can’t keep climbing…
[Chorus]
I try to find the words but they won’t surrender
So I lie to you and say that I don’t remember…
Singing like a hurricane
Dancing like Fred Astaire
Walking like a young John Wayne
I’m talking like I’m falling downstairs…
[Verse 2]
Stut-ter
Mutter to myself
That you can’t quote something from someone else
I duck – swerve
Lose my nerve
It‘s on the tip of my tongue so just give me the words and
[Prechorus]
I walk
Through all the steps (in my head)
It made more sense (in my head)
Plain and simple I can’t keep climbing…
[Chorus]
I try to find the words but they won’t surrender
So I lie to you and say that I don’t remember…
Singing like a hurricane
Dancing like Fred Astaire
Walking like a young John Wayne
I’m talking like I’m falling downstairs…
