Cover art for One Step Closer lyrics by Bon Jovi

Perhaps this song is about how you have accepted that you have been going down a bad path (be it a relationship, crowd you hang with, or not being honest with yourself) and you feel ready to try to get better again. You have tried to get better before and you didn't succeed in doing so but now you are ready and willing to try again. You are sick of giving up. This time is your best chance to get better.
