"Leap"
The drop looks worse than the fall
  No regrets
  No takebacks
  One step
  Two step
  You look down and you can see a river
  That is so far down that it appears to be a snake.
  The hard rocky cliffs don’t help your conscience either
  You’re almost there
  You’ve been prepared for a while
  Many have done this before you
  The adrenaline begins to flow
  Decision time
  No looking back
  The battle between your madness
  And your sanity ensues
  Your mind malfunctions
  While your body is along for the ride.
  You finally did it.
  You took the leap.
  You’re glad that you did
  So make sure you make the most of it.
  Go!
  Fly away into the uncertainty
  Leave the place you have made home
  It is time
  It’s been time for a while
  You have done it
  Go out and find what you are looking for.
