Brave- Sara Bareilles

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 the words do, when they settle underneath 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 want to see you, I just want to see you, I just want to 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, just 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

And since 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 want to see you, I just want to see you, I just want to see you
I wanna see you be brave
