Steps

the steps i've been chasing get lost in the shadows but my eyes are adjusting so i know where i won't go i'm safe over here i'm just picking up the pieces mother wait over there i'll be back in a moment. No wait! I said wait! i'll be back any second! i'm almost done now so i can show you i meant it you're wrong and naive, a little boy turned stupid. you can plead and you can plead but just look at the symptoms you're a darkness engulfed, an absence of me! i taught you the light, what more could you need? I even gave you the air, you just have to breathe! but mom the air is all around me and I'm breathing just fine i know its dark where i stand but believe me I'm kind and finding the lines, to lead me back to you i may be sickled from reason but i know that its true
