Steps

a couple more steps and I would’ve caught the stars
a couple more steps and I could’ve hit mars
a couple more steps and I would’ve never met you
a couple more steps and all my days would’ve been blue
a couple more steps and I would’ve jumped off my cliff
a couple more steps and my life could have been a whole new riff


I took these steps that I made
and there isn’t anything I would trade
because I’m the person I wanna be
if you’ve got a problem with that, let that problem be
cause one day I’ll find my way
I don’t care what you say


while I’m up there catching the stars
my grip may start to slip off these climbing bars
and when my tears blend in with the rain
who is it that I can blame?
I’ve lost the way I never found
when will it all come back around?


I took these steps that I made
and there isn’t anything I would trade
because I’m the person I wanna be
if you’ve got a problem with that, let that problem be
cause I’m losing it, I don’t know why
I’m losing more every time I try.


why doesn’t it make sense?
why am I so confused?
why does it feel like I always lose?


hold on, let’s take one step back
I want to try to replay this track
just to see why I started to slip
and how come I just lost my grip


because:
a couple more steps and I would’ve caught the stars
a couple more steps and I could’ve hit mars
a couple more steps and I would’ve never met you
a couple more steps and all my days would’ve been blue
a couple more steps and I would’ve jumped off my cliff
a couple more steps and my life could have been a whole new riff
