Chorus / Description : The song expresses the fear of being still and the exhaustion of constantly running, while seeking comfort and guidance from a higher power.
Heart in my throat and my body on fire
High over the ground walking on a wire
Hands held tight around all I desire
Calling your name but I'm scared I won't find you
Would you hold, would you hold, would you reach out and hold me?
'Cause I'm out on a limb learning how to keep going
Do you know, do you know, do you know what is coming?
I'm afraid to be still and too tired to keep running
Would you show, would you show, would you reach out and show me?
'Cause I'm losing my mind and I'm leaving my body
Do you know, do you know, do you know where we're going?
I'm afraid to be still and too tired to keep running
I'm afraid to be still and too tired to keep running
I'm afraid to be still and too tired to keep running
I'm afraid to be still and too tired to keep running
Be still
Be still
Oh be still (when my body's on fire)
Oh be still (when I'm out on a wire)
Be still (when I'm scared I won't find you)
Be still (when my body's on fire)
Oh be still
