Lyrics

He told me no one can hold me, no one can hold me down
Lockstep I followed that man even when he was nowhere to be found
So I fall out, fall back, I move over, my fear is too easy to read
But it's too late to turn back now, we're headed for an angry sea
Where the child bride of yesterday is buried in the grace
and the mother of our innocence, they carried her away
La la la la la la la la la la da la dey
La la la la la la la la la la da la dey

Fly fast, strike hard no mercy, you've got to seize the day
There'll be a backlash but don't worry- you can drink some Kool aid with me
Cuz I told you no one can hold you no one can hold you down
"Stop that, get back, its too late!" said the voice of a crooked clown.

There's a foreign word I like to use- for the broken souls who cannot choose
Deep in the river of their pain, Oh Lord, will you wash their pain away

And the Child bride of all our fears is waiting in the grave
and the mother of all miracles, the married her away
yeah they ferried her away
La la la la la la la la la la da la dey
