“Come aboard,” she said,
“though I know that water scares you
I won’t let you go outside the rail,
I swear I won’t fail

Keeping one step ahead

I wish you’d stop shivering
it’s all the torn clothes you wear
It’s all the things in life
you don’t dare

Keeping one step ahead

All the things in your life
no one could forgive,” she said,
“I don’t care how you choose to die
I only care if you wanna live "

Keeping one step ahead”
