lyrics

Don't Step Back Too Far

A fear of danger, can't keep you safe
You're like a red squirrel, you can't hibernate
Fever dreams - you can't un-dream

That's just a hill, it's not a mountain
Don't turn a lake, into an ocean
Don’t overkill, those sleeping pills

Don't step back too far, you might forget who you are
Don't step back too far, you might forget how you want to feel

Go put some clothes on, or we're bound to be late
Then I'll get you home, 'cause you're a light-weight
By bones of trees, down ice-kissed streets

I know the darkness can make everything scream
But there will creep a light from behind your curtain
The broken moon, he's come too soon

Don't step back too far, you might forget who you are
Don't step back too far, you might forget how you want to feel

When everything is red, when everything's been said

When everything is grey, when life has run away
Don't step back - Don't step back too far

Please step near to me, I don't forget who you are
Please come here to me, I won't forget who you can be
When everything is blue, When everything is you
Don't step back too far
