Ref:

Will success fail me?
Will it make me free?
What they tell me I should want?
Is it what I need?
Come March come April
Come may and June
Let the pounding seconds go
There's nothing I can do
Will success fail me?
Will it make me free?
What they tell me I should want?
Is it what I need? (x 2)
Is there something I can do?
