  If you try to run, before you crawl 

  As sure as hell, you're gonna fall 

  So take your time, to breathe again 

  Just let it out and let it in
• GGAmiDEmiD/F♯NC
  S2:
  Your life can be a merry go 

  Round and round, before you know 

  You're back to where you start again 

  So let it out and let in

  R1:
  You're gonna fall with the grace of a cannonball  

  You're gonna rise like a tide above it all  

  You gotta play, play your hand, or die where you stand 

  Sometimes you fail before you begin 

  Sometimes you lose before you win

  S3:
  You gotta try to livе your life 

  A quarter mile at a timе 

  Hear the starting gun and you begin 

  To let it out and let in

  R2:
  You're gonna run like the river runs deep  

  You're gonna blow like the wind, wind of change  

  You gotta find, find the spark that lights up the dark 

  Sometimes you fail before you begin 

  Sometimes you lose before you win (yeah)
