about

Footsteps by Niki Black

Why is it always me who plays the fool?
Why is it always me left nursing my wounds?
Why is it always me who sheds the blood?
I feel so weightless until I’m dragged through the mud

I knew that you were leavin’
I knew just what you’d say
I heard your footsteps even before you walked away
And you walked away,
You walked away.

But clearly I can’t avoid this same ending
Why is it always you who leaves me hurting?
The fire burned so bright but didn’t last
I tried my best, I threw in my last match

I knew that you were leavin’
I knew just what you’d say
I heard your footsteps even before you walked away
And you walked away,
You walked away.

And each time I get so close
The empty space is what hurts the most
And you said you were different
A cruel cliché that came and went

It’s okay that you’re leavin’
There’s nothing left to say
What you don’t know is
I heard your footsteps yesterday.
