Walk Unafraid |
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 |
