Dirty shoes...
Dusty road...
I kept on looking at my shoes
When I take a rest on the road.
Sometimes, I wonder why I wander.
Sometimes, I wonder why my shoes gets ripped.
It looks old with all the dirt;
It looks tired after all of the walk.
My feet may feel the pain
But my shoes shows all the dirt it gained.
I tell myself I can wash it again
But sometimes, as it is I want it to remain.
When I look at all the scratches,
When I look at all the dark brown patches
I feel like I've travelled so far;
I feel like I've been accomplishing things this far.
Even with all those scars
Even with all those marks
I know I have survived
And I know that beside me, there's always a guide.
The dirt bears all my pain;
The dirt shows all the years how my heart has been
But the totality of my shoes
Shows how I've survived from all those pain.
