They kicked me out of the parade I guess I had too much to say Couldn't bend to fit myself inside the lines And I have wasted all this time just trying Those pretty boys and pretty girls Live in their pretty plastic world They're so convinced that everything is black and white That we are wrong and they are right They always told us not to fight Kept us grounded when we should be flying Don't be afraid to fall You know the ground is never too far from the sky And they can have their walls The universe has bigger plans for you and I So baby hold up your head,now Don't ever let 'em see you cry I know you're caught up in the show And it's so hard to let it go To lose the mask you always hid yourself behind To live a life of your design To say what's really on your mind To come out of the dark and shine Don't be afraid to fall You know the ground is never too far from the sky And they can have their walls The universe has bigger plans for you and I So baby hold up your head, now Don't ever let 'em see you cry If you could only see that There is so much more to life than this And everything you are is beautiful And you are everything there is Don't be afraid to fall You know the ground is never too far from the sky And they can have their walls The universe has bigger plans for you and I So baby hold up your head, now Don't ever let 'em see you cry
