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 me 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 me 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 or leave me high

Walk unafraid

I’ll be clumsy instead
Hold me love me or leave me high
