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