[Verse 1]
Say you will
It'll make you feel better
Take your pill
Oh it'll make you feel better
Train your will
You eat the fruit of all mankind
It settles there deep in your mind
Come and eat your fill
[Chorus]
Step outside
Get hold of time
Hold my hand
Remember to climb
Step outside
Get hold of time
Hold my hand
Remember to climb
[Verse 2]
Clear your head
You're still thinking of those lost love letters

[Chorus]
Step outside
Get hold of time
Hold my hand
Remember to climb
Step outside
Get hold of time
Hold my hand
Remember to climb
[Bridge]
You're preying on my mind
You sit there like a favourite song
You make the space for me to belong
But it never gets easy
I'm drifting around in time
I'm creeping through the dust of my life
Now I'm reaching for a guiding light
But it never gets easy
[Chorus]
Step outside
Get hold of time
Hold my hand
Remember to climb
Oh step outside
Get hold of time
Hold my hand
Remember to climb
(Step outside) Step outside
(Get hold of time) Get hold of time
(Hold my hand) Hold my hand
(Remember to climb) Remember to climb
(Step outside) Step outside
(Get hold of time) Get hold of time
(Hold my hand) Hold my hand
(Remember to climb) Remember to climb
