Tenderfoot - Razorback

Tender feet step lightly through my head.

Leftover sleep, still lying on my bed.

Been living in a dream, too scared to cross the line.

And the frightened always tell you…

Be careful when you shine.

Overflowing, incomplete,

Bite the hand or be discreet.

Life is never easy when you

Tread on tender feet.

Tired eyes look fondly on her face.

Watch the years slowly fade from grace.

And the fires burn so low beneath an aching breast.

The weary always tell you…

It’s time to take your rest.

Overflowing, incomplete,

It’s a perfect stain on a dirty sheet.

Life is never easy when you

Tread on tender feet.

Silent heart grows weaker everyday.

And a stranger’s bed is where you long to lay.

All the nameless, faceless,

I heard a young girl weep.

And the lonely always tell you…

Never let your roots go deep

When you tread on tender feet

Don’t bite the hand… that feeds you.
