It’s hard ignoring signs, The whispered words, the prying eyes, With your head held high, Believe in your ways, free your mind.
Go little rose among the thorns, With lights you're alive, and courage you’re borne, Away from the ties and levers that hold you down.
And in the darkest night, The crystalline northern lights, In their glow, carry you home, And in your heart you know, you'll never be alone.

You lived just over in the house on the corner, And we'd listen for the birds, meet in the morning, Take my hand, now, and lead on.
You'd walk up the road with a stick in your hand, Nothing to fear, nothing planned, Take my hand, now, and lead on.
Oh they're gonna say we'll never make it, Don’t get me wrong, we're going to make it, We're going to be the leaders of the world, Lead on.
We together like mountains and rivers, Like a leaf and a tree, an arrow and a quiver, Take my hand, now, and lead on.
We go together like moonlight and silver, And if you were the cold, I’d be the shiver, Take my hand, now, and lead on.
Oh they're gonna say we'll never make it, Don’t get me wrong, we're going to make it, We're going to be the leaders of the world, Lead on.
Can't go back to the world behind us, I'm not ready for the ghosts that’ll find us, Take my hand, now, and lead on.
Living for today, not tomorrow, Paying forward the love that we borrow, Take my hand, now, and lead on.
Oh they're gonna say we'll never make it, Don’t get me wrong, we're going to make it, We're going to be the leaders of the world, Lead on.
