One Step Songtext
von Kyoto Protocol

One step forward
And two steps back
One swift move
And I can′t react

Then, it's one wrong word
And I can′t redact (and I can't redact)
Hyperbole or just plain fact
And if I grip tighter

The grains they slip
The sands of time
Through the whole thin fingers
And, I said I love you

The more we hate
And now I pull back
You reinstate
'Cause, its one step forward


Then two steps back
Just another song or a simple dance
Wide awake or in a trance
It doesn′t seem to matter, it′s happenstance

'Cause it′s one step forward and two steps back
'Cause, I′m really trying when you say you can't
The final chance

To make amends
Is doomed to pass
I′ve tried to ask

Brings me closer, yet it takes me back
Memories are like hidden traps
Winds me tighter, I need some slack
Bullet train veering off the track

Land or sky, 'cause sea makes me sick
Medication or a drug limit
I can travel, but my mind is trapped
I'm trying to escape, but I really can′t

The final chance

To make amends

Is doomed to pass

There′s nothing left
