OUT ON A LIMB

You're so exposed
You crawl into your shell
Where nobody goes
Not a single soul can tell
What paralyses you
What tranquilizes you

You've got a trapdoor
You jumped through
Out on a limb
In spite of the moon
Watching the boats come

And when you caught off guard
I see you twinkle in your eye
A tiny little sparkle of a free mind
But back in the shell
It's a pitch dark world
You think you've gotta be fearless
You think you should be tearless

You've got a trapdoor
You jumped through
Out on a limb
In spite of the moon
Watching the boats come
Out on a limb
