The First Step Lyrics

Closer than this
It burns her heart like a sun-struck desert plain
Closer than this
Lost this soul in the sand that knows no rain
More bitter than this
A taste that's sour for years and she can't lose
More bitter than this
Cross my heart and hope to God you

Stop!
We brave the strength of our emotions all our lives
It turns creation and elation into strife

The first step is the hardest
And some things are even left alone

More pressure than this
This brittle love reveals a flaw
More pressures than this
A subtle beauty is no more
Further than this
It devastates the peace we fought to fake
Further than this
And peace will flourish only when we

Stop!
We brave the strength of our emotions all our lives
It turns creation and elation into strife
The first step is the hardest
And some things are even left alone

I know the truth lies here
It's basking in glory
And as for the lies we read about
Another story, this is another story,,,

The first step is the hardest
And some things are even left alone

This is another story...
