Lyrics

I'm 'round the corner from anything that's real  
I'm across the road from hope  
I'm under a bridge in a rip tide  
That's taken everything I call my own  
  
One step closer to knowing  
One step closer to knowing  
  
I'm on an island at a busy intersection  
I can't go forward, I can't turn back  
Can't see the future  
It's getting away from me  
I just watch the tail lights glowing  
  
One step closer to knowing  
One step closer to knowing  
One step closer to knowing  
Knowing, knowing  
  
I'm hanging out to dry  
With my old clothes  
Finger still red with the prick of an old rose  
Well the heart that hurts  
Is a heart that beats  
Can you hear the drummer slowing?  
  
One step closer to knowing  
One step closer to knowing  
One step closer to knowing  
To knowing, to knowing, to knowing
