<poem>You've seen me looking down before | |||
Each chance ??? questions ?? | |||
Just look around you'll see | |||
There's nothing wrong with me | |||
I'll go my own way | |||
And I'll take you | |||
On the edge | |||
Take a chance | |||
Risk it all | Risk it all | ||
Deep inside | Deep inside | ||
Find it all | Find it all | ||
Let go | |||
Here's your chance, it's now or never | |||
