Be Still Lyrics

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 a shore
And may your limits be unknown
And 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
Labour till the work is done

Be still
one day you'll leave
Fearlessness on your sleeve
And 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 chains
(Over chains!)
Over track over plains
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 dream, in your made up scheme
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?
Oh, rise up like the sun and labour and till the work is done
Rise up like the sun and labour and till the work is
Rise up like the sun and labour and till the work is done
