"Step Aside" lyrics

"Step Aside"

If I get a little praise, you say something to bring me down
And when I go it on my own, you'll remark that I'm neglecting you
There's too much to lose if I should stay around
Tonight and for the rest of my life, there won't be a compromise
To justify the lies
Now is the time (all the colors are faded)
Time to move on (and it's a story so jaded)

Maybe it's time that you step aside
This is my time and I'm feeling strong
Maybe it's time that you step aside
There's no use holding on
Maybe it's time that you step aside
I'm happy at last and I'm feeling high
Maybe it's time that you step aside
Nothing's gonna stop me now

Should I be a little late, I'll be questioned and I'll be accused
And when you've been out through the night, and I gently ask
You, "where you've been?"
You trip out on me, make my world come crashing down
Tonight for the rest of my life, there won't be a compromise
To justify the lies
Now is the time (all the colors are faded)
Time to move on (and it's a story so jaded)

Maybe it's time that you step aside (step aside)
This is my time and I'm feeling strong
Maybe it's time that you step aside
There's no use holding on
Maybe it's time that you step aside
I'm happy at last and I'm feeling high
Maybe it's time that you step aside
Nothing's gonna stop me now
Now is the time (all the colors are faded)
Time to move on (and it's a story so jaded)
Maybe it's time that you step aside...

Maybe it's time that you step aside
This is my time and I'm feeling strong
Maybe it's time that you step aside
There's no use holding on
Maybe it's time that you step aside
I'm happy at last and I'm feeling high
Maybe it's time that you step aside
Nothing's gonna stop me now
