Walking In My Shoes Lyrics By Depeche Mode

    i would tell you about the things they put me through
    the pain i’ve been subjected to
    but the lord himself would blush
    the countless feasts laid at my feet
    forbidden fruits for me to eat
    but i think your pulse would start to rush

    pre
    now i’m not looking for absolution
    forgiveness for the things i do
    but before you come to any conclusions
    try walking in my shoes
    try walking in my shoes

    you’ll stumble in my footsteps
    keep the same appointments i kept
    if you try walking in my shoes
    if you try walking in my shoes

    morality would frown upon
    decency look down upon
    the scapegoat fate’s made of me
    but i promise now my judge and jurors
    my intentions couldn’t have been purer
    my case is easy to see

    pre
    i’m not looking for a clearer conscience
    peace of mind after what i’ve been through
    and before we talk of any repentance
    try walking in my shoes
    try walking in my shoes

    you’ll stumble in my footsteps
    keep the same appointments i kept
    if you try walking in my shoes
    if you try walking in my shoes
    try walking in my shoes

    interlude

    pre
    now i’m not looking for absolution
    forgiveness for the things i do
    but before you come to any conclusions
    try walking in my shoes
    try walking in my shoes

    you’ll stumble in my footsteps
    keep the same appointments i kept
    if you try walking in my shoes
    you’ll stumble in my footsteps
    keep the same appointments i kept
    if you try walking in my shoes
    try walking in my shoes
    if you try walking in my shoes
    try walking in my shoes
