Lyrics

[Verse 1]

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

[Verse 2]

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

[Verse 3]

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?

[Verse 4]

When all I want to do is strip away

These still 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

[Verse 5]

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

[Verse 6]

Walk unafraid

I'll be clumsy instead

Hold me, love me, or leave me high

I will walk unafraid

I'll be clumsy instead

Hold me, love me, or leave me high
