ONE MORE STEP — ROXY × VOIDSKULL

[Intro - guitar feedback signature, intimate female vocal] [FEMALE] I’m tired of running from yesterday But I’m still here, I’m still awake Every scar that I carry now Is one more reason not to turn around [MALE - low, close] Then don’t turn around. [Verse 1 - Female] [FEMALE] I walked through roads I couldn’t see With every doubt surrounding me Every mistake became a weight Every goodbye came way too late I tried to hide what’s underneath The broken parts I couldn’t fix But every time I hit the ground— [MALE] You found another way back up. [Pre-Chorus - call and response] [FEMALE] Maybe I don’t know where I’m going [MALE] You don’t have to know tonight [FEMALE] Maybe I’m scared of what I’ll find [MALE] Then I’ll walk beside you blind [FEMALE] I can’t keep standing still [MALE] Then move. [BOTH] One more step. [Chorus - full pop-punk anthem] [FEMALE] I’ll keep moving, step by step Even when I’m out of breath [MALE] You’ve got nothing left to prove But there’s still something left to lose [BOTH] We’ll keep walking through the pain Through the sunshine, through the rain If tomorrow calls our name WE TAKE ONE MORE STEP AGAIN! [Drop A - Melbourne Bounce x punk guitars] [Gang vocals] ONE MORE STEP! ONE MORE STEP! [Verse 2 - Male lead, role reversal] [MALE] I know the sound of closing doors Of giving everything and wanting more I learned that strength can look like fear Still taking one step when the road’s unclear I’ve watched good things disappear Held onto ghosts for another year But nothing changes standing still— [FEMALE] Then move before the silence will. [Pre-Chorus 2 - faster exchange] [MALE] Maybe I’ll fall a thousand times [FEMALE] Then get up a thousand and one [MALE] Maybe I’ll lose along the way [FEMALE] Doesn’t mean that you are done [MALE] I can hear my heartbeat still [FEMALE] Then move. [BOTH] ONE MORE STEP! [Chorus 2 - bigger] [MALE] I’ll keep moving, step by step Even when I’m out of breath [FEMALE] You don’t need to know the end You just need to start again [BOTH] We’ll keep walking through the pain Through the sunshine, through the rain Whatever waits beyond the gray WE KEEP MOVING ANYWAY! [Drop B - hard techno x reverse bass] [Shouted alternating vocals] [FEMALE] ONE MORE! [MALE] STEP! [FEMALE] ONE MORE! [MALE] DAY! [BOTH] WE WON’T LET FEAR DECIDE OUR WAY! [Breakdown - drums cut, close-mic duet] [FEMALE - quiet] What if I fall again? [MALE] Then I’ll remind you where you’ve been. [FEMALE] What if I lose the road? [MALE] Then we make another one. [FEMALE] What if I’m still scared? [MALE] Be scared. [Silence] [MALE - dry] And move anyway. [Final Build - guitars, rising synths, gang vocals] [FEMALE] One more step! [MALE] One more day! [GANG] ONE MORE STEP! [FEMALE] I’m still here! [MALE] I’m still here! [BOTH] AND WE’RE NOT DONE YET! [One-beat silence] [BOTH - shouted] ONE! MORE! STEP! [Final Drop - full worlds collide] [Pop-punk guitars + Melbourne bounce bass + festival supersaws + hard-techno kicks] [BOTH] We keep moving, step by step Even when we’re out of breath We don’t know where this road will end But we know we’ll start again [FEMALE] Through the sunshine— [MALE] Through the rain— [BOTH] Through every scar that still remains Whatever waits beyond the gray WE KEEP MOVING ANYWAY! [GANG] ONE MORE STEP! ONE MORE STEP! [BOTH] ONE MORE STEP AGAIN! [Outro - guitar feedback returns, synth motif fading] [FEMALE - soft] One more step... [MALE - soft] One more day... [FEMALE] I’m still here. [MALE] So am I. [BOTH] We’re on our way. [Hard stop]
