Walk A Mile In Someone Else 's Shoes

Take one, two, three steps in someone else's place

Hold on and sink wakeless into their nights

See now the misery that leaves no trace

Next time do not be quick to win the race

Do not let the dark take control from light

Take one, two, three steps in someone else’s place

A child whose home feels nothing but displace

The ongoing war has made her want to fight

See now the misery that leaves no trace

A man who seemed to have had his mind erased

Gets strange looks for he has also lost his sight

Take one, two, three steps in someone else's place

A daughter whose been called nothing to chase

Now all she wants to do is say goodnight

See now the misery that leaves no trace

Your judgments cause harm to those who relate

Maybe you see that nothing is alright

Take one, two, three steps in someone else’s place

See now the agony that leaves no trace

Walk a Mile In Someone Else's Shoes
