* You’ll never enjoy your life
Living inside the box
You’re so afraid of taking chances
How’re you gonna reach the top? *
Rules and regulations
Force you to play it safe
Get rid of all the hesitation
It’s time for you to seize the day
** Instead of just sitting around
And looking down on tomorrow
You gotta let your feet off the ground
The time is now **
*** I’m waiting (waiting), waiting (waiting)Just waiting (just waiting)
I’m waiting, waiting outside the lines
Waiting outside the lines
Waiting outside the lines ***
Try to have no regrets
Even if it’s just tonight
How you gonna walk ahead?
If you keep living blind
Stuck in that same position
You deserve so much more
There’s a whole world around us
Just waiting to be explored
Repeat **
Just let it go
Don’t wanna have to force you to smile
I’m here to help you notice the rainbow’Cause I know
What’s in you is out there
Repeat ***
I’m trying to be patient (I’m trying to be patient)
The first step is the hardest (the hardest)
I know you can make it
Go ahead and take it
I’m waiting, waiting
Just waiting
I’m waiting
Repeat ***
Repeat *

2. play it safe謹(jǐn)慎行事
play it safe(=play safe)的意思恰好與take chances的意思相反,它表示“不冒險(xiǎn),求穩(wěn),謹(jǐn)慎行事”。例如:
