|
As the sun comes up |
|
As the moon goes down |
|
These heavy notions creep around |
|
It makes me think long ago |
|
I was brought into this life |
|
A little lamb, a little lamb |
|
Courageous, stumbling |
|
Fearless was my middle name |
|
But somewhere there I lost my way |
|
Everyone walks the same |
|
Expecting me to step |
|
The narrow path they've laid, they claim to |
|
Walk unafraid |
|
I'll be clumsy instead |
|
Hold my love me or leave me high |
|
Say, "Keep within the boundaries |
|
If you want to play" |
|
Say, "Contradiction only |
|
Makes it harder" |
|
How can I be |
|
What I want to be? |
|
When all I want to do is strip away |
|
These stilled constraints |
|
And crush this charade |
|
Shred this sad masquerade |
|
I don't need no persuading |
|
I'll trip, fall, pick myself up and |
|
Walk unafraid |
|
I'll be clumsy instead |
|
Hold my love me or leave me high |
|
If I have a bag of rocks to carry as I go |
|
I just want to hold my head up high |
|
I don't care what I have to step over |
|
I'm prepared to look you in the eye |
|
Look me in the eye |
|
And if you see familiarity |
|
Then celebrate the contradiction |
|
Help me when I fall to |
|
Walk unafraid |
|
I'll be clumsy instead |
|
Hold my love me or leave me high |
|
Walk unafraid |
|
I'll be clumsy instead |
|
Hold my love me or leave me high |
