Afraid to Fly

Are you standing on the sidelines,
Watching the game go by
Cause you just can't make up your mind

Are you paralyzed by your fear
That what you do is for real
and if you're wrong you'll disappear

There is no right or wrong
Just going forward or staying where you belong
Is that what you really want

You think that you are wrong
Do you want to change things
and make it all right again

Go ahead and take that step
Into the abyss
As you fall, the decision will be made

There's no turning back, no fast-track
Just the feeling (fear) of falling (failing)
Into the abyss

Are you afraid to approach the edge
Cause you're afraid you'll slip in
And won't have the chance to 
Come back

Just close your eyes


Are you afraid to fly
To lift your wings 
And leave your world behind
