Lyrics: Staind. The Illusion Of Progress. Pardon Me.

I'm one step from a breakdown, two steps from being safe
Just try to see this through
I'm three steps from this nightmare and four steps from the door
The rest is up to you

Pardon me while I just turn my back and walk away
Pardon me if I can't listen to the things you say
Pardon me if I can't fake it while you still believe
Pardon me

I'm one step from forgiveness and two steps from my grave
We're all just passing through
Three steps from redemption, four from the devil's door
On a path that leads to you

Pardon me while I just turn my back and walk away
Pardon me if I can't listen to the things you say
Pardon me if I can't fake this while you still believe
Pardon me

Pardon me while I just turn my back and walk away
Pardon me if I can't listen to the things you say
Pardon me if I can't fake it while you still believe
Pardon me

I'm two steps from salvation but I'm only taking one
Pardon me
