Title: Two Steps Behind
Vidder: Dee Laundry
Characters: Sherlock Holmes, Greg Lestrade, incidental John Watson
Rating: Teen
Summary: Whatever Sherlock does, Lestrade'll be two steps behind.
Content Notes: Flashing lights (not strobe), sped-up song, dead bodies, grave in a cemetery, smoking, drinking.
Notes: For thetimemoves for Fandom Trumps Hate 2022. This vid supports Navajo Water Project. Shout out to bironic for the prompt (thank you!). The genius of the prompt was immediately apparent, but the song is soooooo slow that I had to speed it up to survive making the vid.

Lyrics:
Walk away, if you want to
It's okay, if you need to
You can run but you can never hide
From the shadow that's creepin' up beside you
There's a magic running through your soul
But you can't have it all
Whatever you do
I'll be two steps behind you
Wherever you go
And I'll be there to remind you
That it only takes a minute of your precious time
To turn around
I'll be two steps behind
Yeah, yeah
Take the time
To think about it
Just walk the line, you know you just can't fight it
Take a look around and see what you can find
Like the fire that's burnin' up inside me
Now there's a magic running through your soul
But you can't have it all, no
Whatever you do
I'll be two steps behind you
Wherever you go
And I'll be there to remind you
That it only takes a minute of your precious time
To turn around
I'll be two steps behind
Yeah, yeah
There's a magic running through your soul
But you can't have it all
Whatever you do
I'll be two steps behind you
Wherever you go
And I'll be there to remind you
That it only takes a minute of your precious time
To turn around
I'll be two steps behind
Yeah baby, two steps behind
Oh sugar, two steps behind
