They kicked me out of the parade
I guess I had too much to see
I 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're 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 worlds
The universe has bigger plans for you and I
So baby, hold up your head
Don't ever let 'em see you cry
I know you're caught up in a shore
And it's so hard to let it go
To lose the mask you always seen 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 worlds
The universe has bigger plans for you and I
So baby, hold up your head
Don't ever let 'em see you cry
If you could only see that there is
So much more to life than this
That everything you are is beautiful
You are everything there is
Don't be afraid to fall
You know the ground is never too far from the sky
And we don't need their worlds
The universe has bigger plans for you and I
Plans for you and I
So baby, hold up your head
Don't ever let 'em see you cry
So baby, hold up your head
So baby, hold up your head
So baby, hold up your head
Don't ever let 'em see you cry
