Step by step by step by step by
Did I walk too far to turn around? (round)
Did I walk too far to turn around?
Did I walk too far to turn around? (round)
Did I walk too far to turn around?
too far to turn around, round
Step by step by step by step by
In a circle
through the wretched
all because they assumed this, even mattered, trapped beneath
Step by step by step by step by
Step by step by step by step by
In a circle
through the wretched
all because they assumed this, even mattered, trapped beneath
The lyrics of DROELOE’s “Step By Step” featuring Iris Penning express a feeling of finding oneself lost and trapped in a situation beyond their control. The repetition of the phrase “Step by step” emphasizes the feeling of being stuck in a cycle, with no real escape. The line “Did I walk too far to turn around?” highlights the fear of having gone too far to change course, while the phrase “trapped beneath” further emphasizes this feeling of being stuck.
The lyrics suggest that perhaps the situation that the artist finds themselves in was not entirely their fault; instead, they were “trapped” by the expectations and assumptions of others. The line “all because they assumed this, even mattered” implies that these expectations were not even relevant or significant in the first place. Yet, the artist is unable to break free from these expectations and feels “wretched” as a result.
Overall, the song portrays a feeling of being trapped in a cycle and regretting past decisions. The repetition of the phrase “step by step” highlights the daunting feeling of being stuck without an escape plan. The lyrics convey a sense of frustration and suffocation at being caught in a cycle that was not entirely their own making.
