One Step

One step forward
Two steps back
Something's struck a cord
Now I think of what I lack

The higher you fly
The farther you fall
I think of every lie
And of every crowded hall

The best die young
But the mediocre are forgotten
I fear my songs may go unsung
And that I will take the path most troddened

'Sticks and stones may break my bones...'
But words will break me
Try and push me out of my comfort zone
I'll retreat further than you can see

Yesterday's history
But today is a gift
I think of words that are really a mystery
It seems my worries take the night shift

'Whats wrong?'
'Oh you'll get over it...'
I have as many issues as the day is long
And I'm always the one to take the hit

One step forward
And two steps back
Something's struck another cord
And all I ever think of is what I lack
