Everyone is dead I'm surrounded by their doubles Actors playing friends "How you've been? it's nice to see you!" Blah blah blah blah blah I can't talk the talk right now I sit down and start without I'll be outside having a smoke Forward is the way out Every single step counts Hoping i'll be alright I leave candles lit when I sleep Forward is the way out Every single step counts Hoping i'll be alright I leave candles lit when i sleep Everyone's a mess Playing games to see who's drunker I'm sixteen steps ahead Who's that boy? He looks familiar Blah blah blah blah blah Her lips move to make a sound I'm sorry the music's loud I'll be outside writing this song Forward is the way out Every single step counts Hoping i'll be alright I leave candles lit when i sleep Forward is the way out Every single step counts Hoping i'll be alright I leave candles lit when i sleep
