Steps Lyrics by Leah Nobel

Running in Borrowed Shoes

2018

[Verse 1]
There was a war that summer
And the blood dripped down from the pulpit
And as much as I tried to control it
I watched my heart turn black, my foundation cracked

[Verse 2]
How could they bite the hands that fed them?
Let's not forget they were hiding under my bed then
If your voice was in their heads, what did you tell them?
If your voice was in their heads, what did you tell them?

[Pre-Chorus]
I stopped talking to you, stopped talking to me
I put my hands over my eyes so I couldn't see
I stopped talking to you, stopped talking to me
I put my hands over my eyes so I couldn't see

[Chorus]
You were breaking my heart in two
You were breaking my heart in two
You were breaking my heart in two steps
So I could walk back down to you
So I could walk back down to you
You were breaking my heart in two steps

[Verse 3]
They took our food and money
Left my father to rot in the prison
But injustice cannot be forgiven
No hallelujah please for hypocrisy

[Verse 4]
Outside the ruin and the folding chair
I won't go in, can't trust what's there
You lead me in and help me see
A burden lifted off of me

[Chorus]
You were breaking my heart in two
You were breaking my heart in two
You were breaking my heart in two steps
So I could walk back down to you
So I could walk back down to you
You were breaking my heart in two steps

[Pre-Chorus]
I stopped talking to you, stopped talking to me
I put my hands over my eyes so I couldn't see
I stopped talking to you, stopped talking to me
I put my hands over my eyes so I couldn't see

[Chorus]
You were breaking my heart in two
You were breaking my heart in two
You were breaking my heart in two steps
So I could walk back down to you
So I could walk back down to you
You were breaking my heart in two steps
