One Step Ahead (Scientist Dub)

How can you be so certain that you're the one flirting with fire?
If each choir needs preaching, and everyone's reaching to them

One step ahead
First to the punchline
Just one step ahead
First to the punchline

Feels like it's all closing in, hmm
Lines we won't cross, we bend instead, hmm
Never mind all the noise going through your head, hmm
'Cause every time we talk, we say the same things that we said
'Cause you never mind all the noise going through your head

How can I be so certain that my first impressions are mine?
Each morning I wake up with circles around me that say
"I got mine, I give in, I give up, it's too much"
"Come on, let's give 'em hell", "No, why not love?", you say
"Be too hard and that's not enough"

One step ahead
First to the punchline
Just one step ahead
First to the punchline

When it feels like it's all closing in, mmm
All the lines we won't cross, we bend instead, mmm
Never mind all the noise going through your head, oh
'Cause every time we talk, we say the same things that we said

Every line we cross, we sing the same things that we sang
Every time we try, we play the same old games, it's all been said
Now, never mind all the noise going through your head
