Steps

Location

We take baby steps forward
Then back we’ll fall
But our steps are in synch
We’re giving our all

Best friends and sisters
We float hand in hand
Down the river of life
Away from dry land

There are times that seem bad
But even rain can be good
For she is my boots
And I am her hood

Left here in pieces
Together made whole
She is my heart
And I am her soul

Our steps are misguided
No destination in mind
Fleeing our demons
The blind leads the blind

Our spirits are broken
We’re beat down and bruised
Feeling empty and hopeless
Tormented, abused

We take steps out of the darkness
And into the light
The battle’s proven tough
But together we fight
