  • Professionalism is an attitude
I'll not get anymore activity on this one so I mixed this today and I think I'll call it finished.
Big thanks to PVD and the incomparable Ken Groverk.

One Step Ahead

Lyrics - PVD (copyright)
Drums - Ken Groverk
Music, vocals & mix - Aidan



verse
You've got the things you wanted
Like a queen sitting on her throne
But everything you've ever needed
I'm afraid you've never known
Riches can't give you what I can
It will leave you hollow inside
The price is a little of yourself
And you'll never be satisfied

bridge
You can't go on
Making the same mistakes
It'll eat you up if you let it
So hold on

Chorus
If you think this life is for real
You better stay one step ahead
When the walls come tumbling down
You better stay one step ahead
You better be prepared
The chase for fame is fast
Don't count on your fairweather friends
Better stay one step ahead

verse
I don't want to spend my time
Watching you on the fast track
I just want to spend my love 
On a woman who gives it back
So I'll assume, you're too consumed
With the feeling of success
And I'm not waiting, so go on creating
Your world of emptiness

bridge
So go on
Making the same mistake
You can go chasing your dreams
But hold on

Chorus

middle
You know it's not real
Stop pretending
Who do you think you are?
The game goes on and on and on.......

chorus

end

Aidan:

Very nice final, but I think you should take a co-write with this one.  You added the bridge and chorus.  Anyway, I like it.
