Lyrics
Hole In the Sidewalk
Standin' on the sidewalk
I recognize the street
The same signs to the left of me
As I shuffle with my feet
Iknow the meaning
Of insanity
To expect a different ending
From the same book that I read
I know that its up ahead
I've been there before
I want to take a different road
But i have to go down this once more
Theres a hole in the sidewalk
I shuffle with me feet
I know the direction
I'm familiar with my street
Everyone is watching
Standing on the sides
Watching as my feet move
How they always slip and slide
Even though i found a style
You seen it before
I have to have another try
And hit the same street one time more
Theres a hole in the sidewalk
I shuffle with my feet
I know the direction
I'm familiar with my street
Hey anybody got a map for me
Hey anybody wanna follow me
Can you maybe put up a roadblock
Detour my scene
Theres a hole in the sidewalk
