Changing My Shoes Lyrics by The Decline

Flash Gordon Ramsay Street

2019

Keep a straight face walking through that door
Like I’m the antichrist and you’re a metaphor
Just a scapegoat for the sins I left at home
Been practicing so long now I drown with a smile
With the nerve I’ve preserved since I was a child
Laid bare at the end without my rope
Pack your bags and take the long way home
Pack your bags and don’t come back
I will never try to do the right thing again
I will spend my days in bed watching TV
Yeah I no longer think I know what I am doing
I will never try to do the right thing again
I’ll keep drifting in and out of company
Yeah I no longer think I know what I am doing
I don’t know what I am doing
The same face that you wore last year
Still resides, eyes wide, never disappeared
And I’m still picking papers from the floor
These same songs are wearing me out, to my embarrassment
I found a melody and it worked so I will
Keep on moving on and on and on and on and on
I’ll keep my convictions closer than I will ever keep your poetry
I’ll keep my contradictions closer than I will keep what you fucking spit at me
