Risk your Life
We must be crazy
to build lives on cliffs
on crumbling rocks
next to moving madness
what if she becomes sad
What if there’s a storm
washing away
everything you’ve worked for
but we can’t live in fear
right?
If you fall in love
it’s hard to stay away
so you risk your life
and hope they’ll let you stay
