Thought these streets always looked so empty
Paved with wet stones and oil
Flash of turn back to the gutter

Brief encounters all end with a slam
Then a presence stirs around me
I around and there's you

Seeking confrontation and contact
Filling the void with human touch
You feel the rush

Just like a crush

Take another step towards the light

You say you can be trusted
But something doesn't feel just right
Take another step no I won't bite

I'm all alone out walking
There is no one else in sight
Take another step

Take another step
Take another step, are you allright


Question answered without a word
What's wrong with you ain't physical
In a second arm twisted behind me

And my face pressed against the wall
Whispers ask for my belongings
Cellphone, wallet and the ring

There is nothing that I can't give you
There is nothing I cannot give
If you let me live

If you let me live

Take another look into my eye

You're stealing everything
But cannot ever take my pride
Take another coin, see if I care

Raping every pocket
But my integrity's not there
Take another thing

Take another ring
Take another swing
I won't fight back


Take another step, let's not deny
Strauss was on to something

And then Nietzsche got it right
Take another step, another crime
A small one for you maybe

But a giant for mankind
It's another step
It's another step

It's another step back for humankind
