[Verse 1] You're off by a long shot You've got to find your reason right now To put that eye up to the keyhole To find the answers to the questions What's it like or what's in fashion This passion keeps us moving along Could I be down to try to get up off the ground To survive without you Cause you'll still be living While I'm busy singing to live Give up, give in Or get up on the roof of the big time And try to pretend you knew better I don't care about you Cause you'll still be living While I'm busy singing
[Chorus] Take one step Have you got it in you You'll have to take it if you want to You'll have to face the consequences That can bring you down Don't try and play the game Cause you could get knocked back underground Take one step Have you got it in you You'll have to fake it like you always do You'll have to face the consequences That can bring you down Don't try and play the game Cause you could get knocked back underground
[Verse 2] You're off by a long shot You've got to find your reason right now To keep your hands inside the game To find your ride for the long haul And let you shoulder all the blame For this monster you can't tame I try to pretend I knew better I'm not scared But I should be Cause you'll still be living While I'm busy singing I will not let you live
[Chorus]
[Bridge] So take your chances Treading water in the fountain of youth The truth will set you free Well now you're drowning in the water In the fountain of youth The world will set you free Well now you're floating in the water In the fountain of youth The truth will set you free Well now you're poisoning the water In the fountain of youth The world will set you free
