Lyrics

I traveled far to find a place called home; all I found was broken past and some broken bones
I left it far behind, although I wish that I had another chance to try
Because I might just die a lonely man and be left in the dark

I can see it all now; i'm gonna fuck up again
One step behind
One step behind

I traveled far to find a place alone, but I realized what I want I can't find on my own
It's not what I really want, although I convinced myself there was nothing past my eye
And I could never find happiness in this world full of pain

I can see it all now; i'm gonna fuck up again
One step behind
One step behind
One step behind

I'm incredulous to think i'll ever be satisfied with my life
When I think I just might scrape by

Then I start to regret every sea I chose to sail
Maybe i'll be a rich man, maybe end up in jail
I'm not supposed to cry, although I can't help but wonder why we'll never get to try
Because I might just die a sheltered man, as I walk through the dark

I can see it all now; i'm gonna fuck up again
One step behind
One step behind
One step behind
One step behind
