Life, Barefoot – Makari (feat. Tilian Pearson)

You’re still a pebble in my shoe
I don’t know why I can’t shake loose from you
I know that this is out of line
But is it so wrong just to pry?

I never threw them away
They’re still inside that vault
The one I keep inside my mind
The one you knew about, no…
She says she’ll already know
Exactly where I stand
Don’t make this more than it was
I don’t think that I can

She says it’s haunting her
I can’t see how the beauty
Of it all bleeds through
I led her astray
I let her walk a thousand miles
In the same pair of shoes
I hope you think I’m afraid
To walk back alone

I never threw them away
They’re still inside that vault
The one I keep inside my mind
The one you knew about, no…
She says she’ll already know
Exactly where I stand
Don’t make this more than it was
I don’t think that I can

Someday I’ll make it back to you
And when I do, I pray you’ll shut the door
Trust me it won’t hurt at all
I’ve already buried who I used to be

I never threw them away
They’re still inside that vault
The one I keep inside my mind
The one you knew about, no…
She says she’ll already know
Exactly where I stand
Don’t make this more than it was
I don’t think that I can
