Verse 2

He's feeling pretty confident he thinks his future's made

But all of a sudden the adoration could fade

Now he begs the world to like him, and pretend he likes himself

but he's wasted all his years and now he's sitting on the shelf

I can try to avoid it I can push it in the shade

But whether I like it or not there are decisions to be made

I'm really scared a little bridge is all that I will be

They'll tell me I'll be big and then they'll walk all over me

Chorus

Carve out your future no one else will do it for you (x2)

I know that it's a hard thing to choose, but I think it's pretty clear that I've got

nothing to lose

Take life by the handlebars and shake shake shake

It is nowhere you will go if it's not progress that you make

I know that it's a hard thing to choose, but I think it's pretty clear that I've got

nothing to lose now

Chorus

Take life by the handlebars

Take life by the handlebars and shake shake shake

It is nowhere you will go if it's not progress that you make

I know that it's a hard thing to choose, but I think it's pretty clear that I've got

nothing to lose now
