Watch Your Step

Words and Music by Jeremy Ross

This train has a strange way of running free
Better watch your step--might get hard to believe
What makes these trees seem to melt away?
Guess we found our way to pass the holiday
Could there be more to this picture than I see?
Brick stairs endlessly decend in front of me
And here we could summon up our dreams
Or set them down in pieces

It's something better to taste
It's something you better chase
Try not to waste it
It's moving too fast; it'll never last
There's no real way to replace it
Must remember to pace it
Find your place, boy
You'd better watch your step; you never know what's next
You just can't seem to shake it
Never needed to face it
No way to fake it now
It's moving too fast; it'll never last
It's all interlaced with
All the thoughts you misplaced
Better learn to embrace this
And watch your step

My ego is just bearly hanging on
But there's still so much work work left to be done
Suppose I broke a promise and some teeth
But still I got a grin and a new apology
Yes, I've been to the top of the world
With these pretty girls, it's always such a blur
And here we could collect our naked dreams
Or set them down in pieces

Sir, could you please help us with our change?
Yes, we need a ride...still feel a little strange
I'll hide behind my hair--it's shagging in my eyes
Our fellow passengers are in for a surprise
Why is it so hard to find a cup of tea?
So much about this trip just makes no sense to me
And here we could find meaning in our dreams
Or set them down in pieces

And I have dreamed of love
And if you must know, I've dreamed of death
I've dreamed of everything I think I could be
But am not quite yet
And here I should just learn
To arrest all these crazy dreams
And once and for all
Set them down to rest in peace

...Watch your step
You never know what's next
