Walk Unafraid — текст песни (Rem)

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.
