As the sun comes up, as the moon goes down
|
These heavy notion 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 narrowpath they've laid
|
They claim to walk unafriad
|
I'll be clumsy instead
|
Hold my love me or leave me high.
|
|
Say "Keep withing 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 charage 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.
