BRAVE<\/strong><\/p>I walked in to your room<\/p>
I couldn’t find the words<\/p>
Do I have to spell it out<\/p>
Sit down this one’s gonna hurt<\/p>
I thought you might have known<\/p>
Many times I had tried<\/p>
To lay it all out<\/p>
Should have come as no surprise<\/p>
You don’t have to be brave<\/p>
You don’t have to let it go<\/p>
You don’t even have to try<\/p>
You are never alone<\/p>
You don’t have to be brave<\/p>
I guess I should have known<\/p>
Should have read the signs<\/p>
Should have hid your keys<\/p>
Should have read your mind<\/p>
You gotta make your move<\/p>
It’s gonna be ok<\/p>
This could be your shot, kid<\/p>
This could be your big break<\/p>
You don’t have to be brave<\/p>
You don’t have to let it go<\/p>
You don’t even have to try<\/p>
You were never alone<\/p>
You don’t have to be brave<\/p>
Or pretend that you’re strong<\/p>
Let’s just both fall apart<\/p>
Right here where we belong<\/p>
You were already packed<\/p>
I was turning over stones<\/p>
Something shifted in the earth<\/p>
When I picked up the phone<\/p>
We’ve been stumbling in the dark<\/p>
For half of our lives<\/p>
Something bigger than us both<\/p>
Pulled me back inside<\/p>
You don’t have to be brave<\/p>
