The bridge is narrow, and there's no light in the dark
It's either watch your next step or go swim with the sharks
I'm not a tightrope walker, this game's not for me
Gotta scrape the scales off my eyes to actually see
Should I stay, should I go? Where to move I don't know
If time is little pebbles, stones are falling below
Making ripples in the river, that's rising too fast
Has all this deliberation been good or bad?
I've convinced myself to run ahead but also turn back
They both make so much sense, neither false, both are fact
I'm a prisoner, I'm chained inside of my own mind
Through the bars I scream, "I need to know, will truth be mine?"
Who's to love? Who's to hate?
It's a chance we all take
But confusing, I prefer to sit around and wait...
...And wait 'til the water's up around my neck
The invisible resistance gets me soaking wet
It takes my life, takes my passion, it takes what makes me, me
A life procrastination only always ends in defeat
Just take the next step, we've all got two feet
The probable's impossible when you refuse to leap
Because there's always one more bridge, another open door
And though we all have time we somehow always find more
Indecision's not a prize, not a ribbon to wear
In fact, I think it's sinister; it's the fear of despair
And fear comes from something living deep within us
It's the son of insecurity; it's pure lack of trust
We've been created to be sated in the One from above
He's better, He's more beautiful, He's the founder of love
And His love casts out fear, can't say it enough
And His love casts out fear, can't say it enough
