Get Us Out of Fearland

Banjo Nickaru & Western Scooches
"Get Us Out of Fearland"
by Betina Hershey

CHORUS
Get us out of fearland
Lead us through the night
Get us out of fear and
Take us to the light

If we don't talk about how we feel
If we don't believe the future's real
The hate we're hearing's been 'round too long
If we're silent, all we are is wrong

CHORUS

I may prefer the quiet way
But now it's time to disobey
And though we'd rather sleep or hide
It's time to stand up at your side

CHORUS

If we don't stand up, stand up now
If we all falter, say we don't know how
If we don't stand up, hand in hand
We're selling ourselves to the hatred land

CHORUS
Take us to the light
