One Step Away

We all make mistakes
We all have regrets

Her heart was shining in the night
like diamonds strewn across the sky
I could not help to catch her
light as she walked by
Twelve steps and seven little lies, two days of waiting for her voice
That's all it took to put a hole inside my life

One step away
from leaving me in silence
One step away
from walking out the door
I see you in my dreams
I pray that I can change
Our lives are breaking
from this world we create

We wore our hearts like our last breath
Inhaled the air just as we met
So close to being open, fragile and so scared
You taught me how to live again
Cleaned up the wreckage and began
To walk the row of broken hearts
that never ends

One step away
from leaving me in silence
One step away
from walking out the door
I see you in my dreams
I pray that I can change
Our lives are breaking
from this world we create

We all make mistakes
We all have regrets

I told you I can be strong
Without you I can't go on
And it's killing me
And I just cannot breath
Now that I know I was wrong

Without you my emotions are dead
Without you I just can't pretend
And it's killing me
I lived in make-believe
Now that I know I was wrong

Stop my bleeding
Vultures feeding me
Into the fires I could never see

One step away
from leaving me in silence,
One step away
from walking out the door
I see you in my dreams
I pray that I can change
Our lives are breaking
from this world we create
