One Step Away Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Yeah!
Just another kid in the firing line
Up against the wall running out of time
Makes no difference what you do
That poison's taking hold of you
Hold of you
[Chorus]
No warning, there's danger
This pain is no stranger
You're falling, I hear you calling
Desperation is just one step away
One step away
[Verse 2]
Just another girl with the crying eyes
Up against the wall running out of lies
Makes no difference where she goes
That poison drags her down below, yeah
Down below
[Chorus]
No warning, there's danger
This pain is no stranger
You're falling, I hear you calling
Desperation is just one step away
One step away
[Guitar solo]
One step away
One step away
[Verse 3]
Just another day like the one before
Livin' on the streets, running from the law
Makes no difference what you said
That poison's got you in its web
In its web
[Chorus]
No warning, there's danger
This pain is no stranger
You're falling, I hear you calling
Desperation is just one step away
One step away
One step away
One step away
Yeah!
Just another kid in the firing line
Up against the wall running out of time
Makes no difference what you do
That poison's taking hold of you
Hold of you
No warning, there's danger
This pain is no stranger
You're falling, I hear you calling
Desperation is just one step away
One step away
Just another girl with the crying eyes
Up against the wall running out of lies
Makes no difference where she goes
That poison drags her down below, yeah
Down below
No warning, there's danger
This pain is no stranger
You're falling, I hear you calling
Desperation is just one step away
One step away
One step away
Just another day like the one before
Livin' on the streets, running from the law
Makes no difference what you said
That poison's got you in its web
In its web
No warning, there's danger
This pain is no stranger
You're falling, I hear you calling
Desperation is just one step away
One step away
One step away
One step away
