I am here on this platform
And something may suck me down
If I step off this platform,
I'll be cut through clean
If I had eyes in back of me,
I shudder to think what I would see
My faith brought me no further,
Faith got me nowhere
My faith brought me no further,
Fate got me here
So, I'll jump
I'll jump, jump, jump
I am still on this platform,
Pondering my next move
It is all down to direction
I could be clean and through
If I had eyes in back of me,
I shudder to think what I would see
When better days have gone,
You fall off the merry-go-round
My faith brought me no further,
Faith got me nowhere
My faith brought me no further,
Fate got me here
So, I'll jump
My faith brought me no further,
Faith got me nowhere
My faith brought me no further,
Fate got me here
So, I'll jump
I'll jump, jump, jump
When better days have gone,
You fall off the merry-go-round
When better days have gone,
You fall off the merry-go-round
When better days have gone,
You fall off the merry-go-round
When better days have gone, I fall off
I'm falling down, so I'll jump
