One Step Closer

I've seen my heart of darkness

Let's just say I crossed over that line

Held hands with the hopeless

In too deep on that ride, went around one more time

When you're standing on the edge, you don't look down

Till you're ready and willing to fly

Now I'm one step closer

With my arms open wide here

I'm one step closer

And I'm willing to try this time

I hitched a ride with forgiveness

In that river of emotion, I went down a third time

I spent the night with the living

Took a chance, looked inside, didn't know who I'd find

Standing on the corner of that lone goodbye

All alone, it's there, I made up my mind

Yeah, I'm one step closer

With my arms open wide here

I'm one step closer

And I'm willing to try

I'm sick of giving up

Ooh, with a little luck

I'm gonna get out of here

When you're standing on the edge, you don't look down

Till you're ready and willing to fly

I'm one step closer

With my arms open wide here

I'm one step closer

And I'm willing to try, yeah

I'm one step closer

Yeah, I'm one step closer
