Break through to the surface
Out of the norm
Stop holding your breath
Forget to conform
Don't stay under too long
You'll lose your heart
It's a pity to drown
Before you get a start
It's so hard to take a chance
When you're already molded
Into a cast of acceptance
Safely as not to be scolded
Coming out of the water
Straight into the dive
Now's your chance
To come alive
The rain is pouring
Time to brave the storm
Stop holding your breath
Forget to conform
