It's new path off the cliff

Bird in the hand
A metaphor suggesting holding onto something certain or known.
Hand in glove (hand in the glove)
Being closely connected or in agreement with someone.
Two in the bush
Choosing a more uncertain option, potentially more rewarding.
Push comes to shove (push comes to shove)

But I wish you would just

Trouble is in the mind of the beholder (mind of the beholder)
Trouble or challenges are subjective, dependent on one's perspective.
And every day I can feel it getting colder (it's getting colder)
Perception of difficulty intensifying or worsening over time.
If this is your war baby

I don't wanna be your soldier
-Oh, I wish you would just
Repeated request for reconsideration with variations.
Reconsider it
-Reconsider it
-Uh huh, reconsider it oh
-Hey now, reconsider it (reconsider it)
