Be Still

Be still, go on to bed

Nobody knows what lies ahead

And life is short, to say the least

We're in the belly of the beast

Be still, wild and young

Long may your innocence reign

Like shells on the shore

May your limits be unknown, may your efforts be your own

If you ever feel you can't take it anymore

Don't break character, you've got a lot of heart

Is this real or just a dream?

Rise up like the Sun, labor till the work is done

Be still, one day you'll leave

Fearlessness on your sleeve

When you come back, tell me what did you see? (what did you see?)

Was there something out there for me?

Be still, close your eyes

Soon enough you'll be on your own

Steady and straight

And if they drag you through the mud, it doesn't change what's in your

Blood

Over rock, over chain, over trap, over plain

When they knock you down

Don't break character

You've got a lot of heart

Is this real or just a dream?

Be still

Be still

Be still

Be still

Over rock and chain, over sunset plain

Over trap and snare

When you're in too deep

In your wildest dreams, in your made up schemes

When they knock you down (when they knock you down)

Don't break character

You've got so much heart

Is this real or just a dream?

Rise up like the Sun, and labor till the work is done
