Song lyrics

When I walk in your shoes
I understand a man confused,
There must have been but I don't care,
I feel the way your soul does there.
Darling, they empathise
Looking through your bloodshot eyes,
And I know you you're so frustrated.
Above we all become what we once hated.
Be slight, nobody can be that wise.

I can't help ya if you won't help yourself,
I can't help ya if you don't help yourself.
You can only get so much from someone, yeah,
You can get so much from me.
I can't help ya if you won't help yourself.

You've got a degree A in philosophy,
So you think you're cleverer than me
But I'm not just some drama queen
‘Cos it's where you're at not where you've been
So what do you expect from me?
To hold your head above the sea
And carry you even though you're bigger?
‘Cos don't you know, you crush my tiny figure.
And anyway we're still so young,
And this isn't yesterday.

I can't help ya if you won't help yourself,
I can't help ya if you don't help yourself.
You can only get so much from someone, yeah,
I can't help ya if you won't help yourself.

You might be twenty-five but in my mind
I see you at sixteen years or most of the time,
And I'm, I'm just a child and you're full grown.
And no I'm nothing like I've ever known, yeah,
I'm nothing like I've ever known.
