One Good Step
One Good Step: A Journey of Healing and Self-Discovery
Lyrics
Going back home with a great big hole in me
Expressing the emotional pain of returning home with a profound sense of emptiness.
Waiting for the moment I'm all alone
Awaiting solitude, possibly for reflection or self-discovery.
I can feel some semblance of the person that was me.
Sensing traces of the former self despite heartbreak.
Cause she broke my heart and I lost my way
Referring to a past relationship that caused heartbreak and a sense of being lost.
In this lonely big city of East L.c.
Describing the urban loneliness in East L.c. and the haunting memories of the past relationship.
Where I'm haunted by the ghost of who we use to be.
Feeling haunted by the memories of the past relationship and the person they used to be.
But I don't know if there is another way,
Expressing uncertainty about alternative paths or solutions.
I don't know if there is another day,
Uncertainty about the future and whether there will be another opportunity.
So one foot goes in front of the other.
Emphasizing the act of moving forward, step by step.
I don't know the person I'm gonna be,
Expressing a lack of self-awareness regarding future identity.
I don't know what path lies in front of me,
Uncertainty about the upcoming life path.
But one good step leads to another.
Highlighting the importance of taking a positive step despite uncertainties.
So I'll leave this town with this broken street
Leaving behind a place marked by brokenness and memories of the past relationship.
cnd this fucked up house with your memories,
Referring to a dysfunctional house filled with memories of the past lover.
Now I'm headed out without you on my own.
Embarking on a journey alone, without the former partner.
cnd I'll go back home to my mom and dad,
Returning to parents, feeling regret for leaving in the first place.
Like I never left, and I feel so bad,
Expressing guilt for having left, as if nothing changed.
Cause I never lived without you on my own.
Regret for not having lived independently without the former partner.
But I don't know if there is another way,
Reiterating uncertainty about alternative paths or solutions.
I don't know if there is another day,
Expressing uncertainty about the possibility of another day.
So one foot goes in front of the other.
Reinforcing the importance of taking steps, despite uncertainty.
I don't know the person I'm gonna be,
Reiterating the lack of knowledge about the future self.
I don't know what path lies in front of me,
Expressing uncertainty about the forthcoming life path.
But one good step leads to another.
Emphasizing the idea that positive steps lead to more positive outcomes.
