i wonder (3:56)

On the edge of a diving board
I stand
Jump into the abyss,
Dark and unknown land

And I wonder, I wonder
What's waiting for me
And I wonder
What's in the water,
What's underneath

I follow men before me
Who have come to their defeat
Crawled from the fallen pillars
That came down to their knees

And I wonder,
Will I be a king?
Oh, I wonder --
Will my head stay on if I lead?

I'm but a man
Not a child in my youth
I've had big ideas;
I have much to do
I have a chance
Will I rise to meet my own demands?

Ooh I wonder (I wonder)
I wonder (I wonder)
Every day
Ooh, I wonder, will I be damned
If I walk this way?

Ooh I wonder (I wonder)
Do I even (do I even) have a say?

Ooooh ooh ooh, ooooh ooh ooh oooooh.
