15 Step Lyrics

How come I end up where I started
How come I end up where I belong
Won't take my eyes off the ball again
You reel me out then you cut the string

How come I end up where I started
How come I end up where I belong
Won't take my eyes off the ball again
You reel me out then you cut the string

You used to be alright
What happened?
Did the cat get your tongue
Did your string come undone
One by one
One by one
It comes to us all
It's as soft as your pillow

You used to be alright
What happened?
Etcetera etcetera
Fads for whatever
Fifteen steps
Then a sheer drop

How come I end up where I started
How come I end up where I belong
Won't take my eyes off the ball again
You reel me out then you cut the string

What is the Meaning of 15 Step?

This thought-provoking track explores the cyclical nature of life and the challenges we face when trying to break away from our past. The lyrics convey a sense of frustration with feeling stuck in a loop, always ending up where one started despite efforts to change. The "15 steps then a sheer drop" could symbolize the build-up towards a significant change or event, only to be met with disappointment or failure. The repeated question "What happened?" suggests a longing for understanding, perhaps about why things turned out the way they did. This song is an introspective journey that encourages listeners to reflect on their own experiences and struggles.
