One Step Closer

I've seen the 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
Yeah, 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 at third time
I spend the night with the living
Took a chance, looked inside
Didn't know who I'd find
Standing on the corner of the long goodbye
All alone scared, I made up my mind,

Yeah, I'm one step closer
With my arms open wide
Well, I'm one step closer
And I'm willing to try

I'm sick of giving up
Oh, with a little luck
I'm gonna get out of here

When you're standing on the edge
Don't look down
Till you're ready and willing to fly

I'm one step closer
With my arms open wide
Yeah, I'm one step closer
And I'm willing to try
Yeah, I'm one step closer
Yeah, I'm one step closer
