take a swing and we're risking everything
it's over when we're afraid to break the rules
because it's safe
i got a letter saying i'm doing it all wrong
i think that i'll write back and find out how it's done

take a swing
there's got to be more to this
than what we hear about

take a swing
there's got to be more to this
than what we're all about

and you're wishing your days away
do you really want to live your life this way
when did the fire die
i don't see it in your eyes
we all fall down so pick yourself up from the dirt
'cause after all you'd think it'd be the fall
but it's the getting up that hurts

take my hand and come with me
i won't let you down this time
there's more than the last time
it will all work out
