One Step Closer
Linkin Park(聯合公園) Lyrics

I cannot take this anymore
I am at my limit and cannot handle this situation anymore

I'm saying everything I've said before
I have voiced my frustrations and feelings about this before

All these words they make no sense
The words being spoken to me are not logical or helpful

I find bliss in ignorance
I prefer not to acknowledge or understand the problems at hand

Less I hear the less you'll say
If I stop listening, you will stop talking

But you'll find that out anyway
Despite my attempts to avoid the situation, you will eventually realize my lack of engagement

Just like before
This scene has played out multiple times before

Everything you say to me
The words you speak to me

Takes me one step closer to the edge
Pushes me closer to the limits of what I can handle

And I'm about to break
I am close to reaching my breaking point

I need a little room to breathe
I require space to collect myself and process my emotions

'Cause I'm one step closer to the edge
As a result of the words being spoken, I am nearing my limit

I find the answers aren't so clear
I am struggling to understand the issues at hand

Wish I could find a way to disappear
I desire to escape the reality of the situation

Nothing seems to go away
The problems and stresses of the situation persist

Over and over again
This pattern repeats itself

Shut up when I'm talking to you
Stop speaking when I am trying to communicate with you

Shut up, shut up, shut up
I feel overwhelmed and frustrated with the constant talking

I'm about to break!
I am at my limit and cannot handle the situation any longer
