One Step Ahead
Navigating Life's Maze: Unraveling the Message in 'One Step Ahead'
Lyrics
It's right, you know it
It emphasizes correctness; the speaker asserts knowledge.
Can't you see you're just fooling yourself
Suggests self-deception; the person fails to recognize the truth.
It's here, reveal it - all the feelings just lead you to blow it
Encourages openness and honesty, warning against self-sabotage.
Something special is undeniably run of the mill
Highlights the paradox of being special yet commonplace.
Who is accepted, who to reject, who is neglected
Questions social dynamics, acceptance, rejection, and neglect.
Who can make the choice
Raises the issue of decision-making and choices.
Who is admitted, who is denied, who can discern with the human eye
Explores the complexity of admission, denial, and human perception.
It's wrong, you know it
Declares something as wrong, urging reflection on instincts.
Your gut should be telling you why
Encourages introspection by trusting one's instincts.
Avoid it, discard it
Advises rejecting and discarding negative elements.
Avoid it, put it aside, now
Reiterates the importance of avoiding and setting aside negativity.
So who is accepted, who to reject v who is neglected
Repeats questions on acceptance, rejection, and neglect.
Who can make the choice
Reiterates the theme of decision-making and choices.
Who is admitted, who is denied
Repeats the complexities of admission and denial.
Who can discern
Poses a question about the ability to discern truth.
Filled with human error
Notes the inevitability of human error in discernment.
Elusive answers stay just one step ahead

Useless effort, always one step ahead
Comments on futile efforts to catch up with elusive answers.
Think about it
Encourages contemplation on the upcoming information.
The more you learn, the less you know
Expresses the paradox that more knowledge leads to less certainty.
The more you learn, the less you know
Reiterates the diminishing certainty with increasing knowledge.
You know
Emphasizes the speaker's knowledge and certainty.
The more you look, the less you find
Highlights the diminishing returns of seeking more information.
The more you look, the less you find
Reiterates the idea that excessive searching yields little.
Who can say they're satisfied
Raises the question of satisfaction in the search for answers.
Who can say they've found the answers
Challenges the idea of finding definitive answers.
Elusive answers stay just one step ahead
Repeats the notion of elusive answers staying one step ahead.
