REM // Walk Unafraid
REM // Walk Unafraid - From The Album Up (1998)
We made our name from Live shows. In fact we were the first to do a Live Online Gig back in 2008 and it was quality. We will be sharing this story later.. For now though lets take a look at top quality bands Live.. Cos thats where its at.. Now REM I was lucky enough to see a few times. The last time was at Old Trafford Cricket Club and they just grab you from the off. This video is from Germany so it shows you the reach of this class act. I love these videos too for the interaction with the crowd. They are buzzing.. Long Live LIVE..
LYRICS:
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
