Mike Shinoda
One Step Closer (Live Projekt Revolution 2004)
[Intro: Mike Shinoda]
Thanks, you guys
Ay, thank you guys who're making this year's Projekt Revolution such a success
We really appreciate you guys being here
And to support
And your energy
This one's gonna be our last song
So if you got that energy left, let's go ahead, use it right now
You ready?
[?] Three, two, one, go!
Keep it up, y'all

[Verse 1: Chester Bennington]
I cannot take this anymore
Saying everything I've said before

[Pre-Chorus: Chester Bennington]
All these words, they make no sense
I found bliss in ignorance
Less I hear, the less you say
You'll find that out anyway
Just like before

[Chorus: Chester Bennington, Mike Shinoda, Both]
Everything you say to me
Takes me one step closer to the edge and I'm about to break
I need a little room to breath
One step closer to the edge and I'm about to break
[Verse 2: Chester Bennington, Mike Shinoda]
I find the answers aren't so clear ([?], keep it up)
Wish I could find a way to disappear (Yeah, c'mon!)

[Pre-Chorus: Chester Bennington]
All these thoughts, they make no sense
I found bliss in ignorance
Nothing seems to go away
Over and over again
Just like before

[Chorus: Chester Bennington, Mike Shinoda, Both]
Everything you say to me
Takes me one step closer to the edge and I'm about to break
I need a little room to breathe
One step closer to the edge and I'm about to break
Everything you say to me
Takes me one step closer to the edge and I'm about to break
I need a little room to breathe
One step closer to the edge and I'm about to (Everybody!) break

[Verse 3: Jonathan Davis, Mike Shinoda, Chester Bennington]
These are the places where I can feel
Torn from my body, my flesh, it peels
During this ride, we can cut up what we like (Jonathan Davis, ladies and Gentlemen!)
Waiting alone, I cannot resist
Feeling the hate I have never missed
Please someone give me a reason to cut off my face
Blood is a-pouring (You guys ready to do this?)
Blood is a-pouring (This is your last chance, you ready?)
Blood is a-pouring (I'll see everybody up, let's go!)
Blood is a-pouring, and pouring, and pouring
Shut up when I'm talkin' to you!
[Bridge: Chester Bennington, Jonathan Davis]
Shut up (Blood is pouring)
Shut up (Blood is pouring)
Shut up (Blood is pouring)
Shut up when I'm talkin' to you
Shut up (Blood is pouring)
Shut up (Blood is pouring)
Shut up (Blood is pouring)
Shut up! I'm about to break

[Chorus: Chester Bennington, Mike Shinoda, Both]
Everything you say to me
Takes me one step closer to the edge and I'm about to break
I need a little room to breathe
Chasing one step closer to the edge and I'm about to break
Everything you say to me
Takes me one step closer to the edge and I'm about to break
I need a little room to breathe
One step closer to the edge and I'm about to break
