Little Black Sandals
Sia · We Meaning You Tour: Live At The Roundhouse [2011]
Down by the hand
The hand of a golden giant man
He's crushing my knuckles and splitting my skin
He says he will let go if only I ask it of him
He says girl it's your call
You wanna fly
You wanna fall
So I shout I wanna get away from you as fast as I can
I tell my feet to move it
I hope they have a plan
These little black sandals are walking me away
These little black sandals are heading the right way
These little black sandals are walking me away
These little black sandals saved my life today
So now I'm free
Free from the big bad giant who was stalking me
Thank you feet for guiding me
I'm glad somehow I've got brains down there at least
These little black sandals are walking me away
These little black sandals are heading the right way
These little black sandals are walking me away
These little black sandals saved my life today
Sometimes I'm tempted
Sometimes I am
I would be lying if I said I didn't miss that giant man
Oh
He was a line between pleasure and pain
But me and the feet have some years to reclaim
These little black sandals are walking me away
These little black sandals are heading the right way
These little black sandals are walking me away
These little black sandals saved my life today
