Seems like a deal with the devil, but it is just the choice to give into darkness... ©2025 SonicSketch https://suno.com/@sonicsketch [Intro] Some doors stay open. Some doors just take. Step on through. (Step on through... ) But not for heaven’s sake. [Verse 1] Desert stretched like a preacher’s lie. Sun burned a bright unblinking eye. Came to a crossroads—bones in the dust. No sign, no wind, just the sound of trust breaking. Promises forsakened There was a man- no, a shadow- no, just a smile with too many teeth. Said my name like a hymn half-forgotten, Voice like a tune I used to know. Poured me a drink with hands too long and lanky. Glass filled itself. I drank it. It tasted like... [Pre-Chorus] The walls leaned in. The ceiling sighed. The floorboard groaned- “Boy, you gonna run or ride?” Wind pushed my back. My back pushed me forward. I laughed. The door laughed louder. [Chorus] Step on through. (Step on through... ) Ain't no back. (Ain’t no back... ) Step on through. (Step on through... ) Ain’t no goin’, goin’ back- only deeper down. Only deeper down. Down into the ground. [Verse 2] Railway track with no train. Sky the color of a gambler’s last hand. Distant thunder with no rain. Something moved in the corner of my eye- something I used to be. I turned. It grinned. Did not attack. I grinned back. [Pre-Chorus] He said, “Son, you’re askin’ too much.” I said, “You ain’t askin’ at all.” He said, “Then you already know.” I did. Didn’t stop me. [Chorus] Step on through. (Step on through... ) Ain't no back. (Ain’t no back... ) Step on through. (Step on through... ) Ain’t no goin’, goin’ back- Only deeper down. Only deeper down. Only deeper… Ever deeper down. [Bridge] Did I run? Did I kneel? Did I beg? Did I steal? Did I trade? Did I drown? Did I even make a sound? As I stepped on through (stepped on through) And went deeper, deeper down. [Final Chorus] Step on through. (Step on through... ) Ain't no back. (Ain’t no back... ) Step on through. (Step on through... ) Ain’t no goin’, goin’ back- only deeper down. Only deeper down. Only deeper… Ever deeper down. Deeper….deeper down. [Outro] The door was laughing when it shut. Left my footprints burnin’ in the dust. Ain’t no devil. Ain’t no deal. Just the way the dark makes itself feel...real.
