One Step Ahead (Scientist Dub)

How can you be so certain that you're the one flirting with fire

If each choir needs preaching and everyone's reaching

Into their-

One step ahead

First to the punchline

Just one step ahead

First to the punchline

Feels like it's all closing in (Hmm)

The lines we won't cross, we'll bend instead (Hmm)

Never mind all the noise going through your head (Hmm)

'Cause every time we talk we say the same things that we say

So never mind all the noise going through your head

How can I be so certain that my first impressions are mine

Each morning I wake up with circles around me that say

"I got mine, I give in, I give up, it's too much"

"Come on, let's give 'em hell!", no, "Why not love?" you say

"Be too hard and there's not enough"

One step ahead

First to the punchline

Just one step ahead

First to the punchline

When it feels like it's all closing in (Hmm)

All the lines we won't cross, we'll bend instead (Hmm)

Never mind all the noise going through your head (Hmm)

'Cause every time we talk we say the same things that we say

And every line we cross, we say the same things that we say

Every time we try, we play the same old games, it's all been said

Now, never mind all the noise going through your head
