C. S. Phoenix - Rock In My Shoe

Do you ever get that feeling
Like you don't know what to do
When on sunny days
It's raining
And in all the joy around you
You somehow still feel blue

There's just this aching feeling
Each time I move I feel it more
It's a stabbing feeling
Every time my foot hits the floor
I just can't shake it
I don't know what to do
It's like I'm running in circles
And I've got a rock in my shoe

With each step I get more restless
But I can't just sit and stew
I have to somehow keep moving
But I've got a rock in my shoe

It rattles around inside there
Like the thoughts inside my head
It's a punching aching pain
Like the harsh words you've always said

It hurts my toes
It hurts my heel
It even hurts my heart
Because I know if I don't stop hurting
I will soon, sure fall apart

The fear of never making it to where I want to be
Of dreams within that will never make it to reality

This pain
This pain
This aching pain
Just make it go away

My laces tight
I can't undo
And it's only now that I start to feel the rock within my shoe

I walk on and on ignoring pain
But I think I'm finally through

With one swift pull
The lace comes out
And my deed is nearly done
Through the clouds I vaguely see the shining of the sun

The grass is green
The air is warm
My toes kiss morning dew

Oh, how good it feels to know
You were only a pebble in my shoe

I'm running barefoot, now, awhile
To see what I can see

I keep my sneakers close at hand
A sandal here or there
But now, I just like the feel
Of my feet when they are bare
