Chemical Vocation - Small Step Backwards

Every day has been misleading,
searching for something we'll probably never get.
But even though, we kept on digging,
hoping this road will take us to the place
I've seen in my dreams,
and to the place I've watched out through the crowd.
I have to get there.

I'm all alone facing my worst fears.
Taking small steps backwards,
I'm careful not to trip.
With nowhere else to run,
I hide my pain behind the smoke. I've seen it clear, your soul is bleeding.
You intend not to show,
but your once shining eyes slips away,
'cause now they're screaming.
You need to focus, take it easy,
inhale, exhale.
Close your eyes and soon you will be there,
I have to get there.

I'm all alone facing my worst fears.
Taking small steps backwards,
I'm careful not to trip.
With nowhere else to run,
I hide my pain behind the smoke, behind the smoke.

I'm all alone (facing my worst fears),
taking small steps backwards
(I'm careful not to trip).
With nowhere else to run
(I hide my pain behind the smoke), behind the smoke.
