Lyrics
"Come aboard," she said, "though I know that water scares you
I won't let you go outside the rail, I swear I won't fail
Keeping one step ahead
I wish you'd stop shivering - it's all the torn clothes you wear
It's all the things in life you don't dare
Keeping one step ahead
All the things in your life no one could forgive," she said,
"I don't care how you choose to die
I only care if you wanna live
Keeping one step ahead"
