[Verse 1]
Days, they circle 'round
I'm no good for this twirl
When finally I wake
I'm out here on my own
Shout out loud, you won't know
Shout out loud, it won't show
I'll never make a sound
But I'm way, way, way down
[Chorus]
Slow and steady stroke
Stubborn, beautiful
Careful as I go
In this wild and wicked world
I go
[Verse 2]
Take me to the moon
Where I can sleep 'til noon
Living my today
I don't care what you say
I scream and shout, they shun me out
And I'm trying hard to make it count
I get by, I can't deny
I know every single reason why
[Chorus]
Slow and steady stroke
Stubborn, beautiful
Careful as I go
In this wild and wicked world
I go
[Bridge]
Be careful of what we think we know
Black rivers turn to gold
Keep looking up
To feel the glow
[Chorus]
Slow and steady stroke
Stubborn, beautiful
Careful as I go
In this wild and wicked world
I go
[Post-Chorus]
Careful as I go
In this wild and wicked world
I go
