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 way the that words do
and they settle 'neath your skin
Keepin' on the inside and no sunlight
somebody's shadow wins
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
If you wanna say and let the words fall out
Honestly I wanna see you be brave
I just wanna see you
just wanna see you
I wanna see you be brave
I just wanna see you
I just wanna see you
I wanna see you be brave
Everybody's been there
Everybody's been scared down
by the enemy
Fallen for the fear and done some disappearing
Bow down to the mighty
but dont run
It stops 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
If you wanna say and let the words fall out
Honestly I wanna see you be brave
Innocence your history of silence
Wont do you any good
Did you think it would?
Let your words be anything but empty
Why dont you tell them the truth?
Say what you wanna say
and let the words fall out
Honestly I wanna see you be brave
If you wanna say and let the words fall out
Honestly I wanna see you be brave
I I wanna see you
be brave I wanna see you
be brave 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
