Sara Bareilles > BRAVE


You can be amazing
 You can turn a phrase into a weapon or a drug
 You can be the outcast
 Or be the backlash of somebody’s lack of love
  
Or you can start speaking up
 Nothing’s gonna hurt you the way that words do
 And they settle ‘neath your skin
 Kept on the inside and no sunlight
 Sometimes a shadow wins 

But I wonder what would happen if you
Say what you wanna say 
And let the words fall out
 Honestly I wanna see you be brave
With what you want to say 
And let the words fall out
 Honestly I wanna see you be brave

I just wanna see you 
I just wanna see you
 I just wanna see you 
I wanna see you be brave

I just wanna see you 
I just wanna see you 
I just wanna see you
 I wanna see you be brave

Everybody’s been there, everybody’s been stared down
 By the enemy 
Fallen for the fear and done some disappearing
 Bow down to the mighty
 Don’t run, stop holding your tongue
 Maybe there’s a way out of the cage where you live
 Maybe one of these days you can let the light in
 Show me how big your brave is
Say what you wanna say 
And let the words fall out 
Honestly I wanna see you be brave
With what you want to say 
And let the words fall out
 Honestly I wanna see you be brave
Innocence, your history of silence
 Won’t do you any good
 Did you think it would?
 Let your words be anything but empty
 Why don’t you tell them the truth?
Say what you wanna say
 And let the words fall out
 Honestly I wanna see you be brave
With what you want to say
 And let the words fall out
 Honestly I wanna see you be brave

I just wanna see you 
I just wanna see you 
I just wanna see you
 I wanna see you be brave

I just wanna see you
  I just wanna see you 
I just wanna see you
 I wanna see you be brave

I just wanna see you 
I just wanna see you 
I just wanna see you 
I wanna see you be brave

I just wanna see you
 I just wanna see you 
I just wanna see you
