"Leave me alone", I cried, "and please quit teasing me!!"
Shivering up and down, I couldn't do a thing
Why am I so afraid of being left behind?
sometimes I think that bravery just doesn't like me...
We were the same a dog abandoned in the rain
Reaching a hand I begged for him to know my pain
Holding him tight I whispered shaking in the night
"You're different, right? You won't bully me and things will be all right"
"How about you and me be friends?"
"But we'll never have to use any words"
"Although I've got things to speak"
I just couldn't see the
t r a g e d y
soon to be
I heard it loud and soon had come to find These voices that had knocked in my mind
"Wow, they're really rotten!"
"Cheat 'em and you leave 'em"
"You're the worst!"
"Just die, make my day!"
And all but me could scream inside They just won't hear me, listen, or try
not a word to swallow left me feeling hollow if I can't talk, then I'll cry!
"Well this is what you get for holding on" The haunting noise from lonely sung
And buried this in me because...
"it's eye for eye"
Another day, the same their cloudy minds will rain
Soaking me through, I start to break and melt away
Never to stop, I steal whatever's on their mind
So I'm a monster
who they're not allow to treat kind
Running away, I thought I could maybe escape
Standing in place would only make me suffocate
Dodging the daggers from their eyes and brushed aside
I flew away and out of their sight to where they couldn't find
Circling the woods, I know... Is crazy but there was nowhere to go home
And I was so afraid, you know. But so happy now
because it's you
I had found
I heard it loud I wait to hear the sound
That soon will paint my world up & down
"Someone, please I'm begging"
"Take me far away from the constant fear!"
I'm so
a l o n e
here
The "me" instide that sat and cried
Picked up himself and left it behind
"Scared of what they're thinking?"
"maybe you can never BE BRAVE and change what's to come?"
But knocking on that door I know what's true
and sure the story's soft and new
i'll slowly turn that cover page
and open up
Helplessly crying, she was sitting there
"Day after day, it never will end"
"I dream that this whole wrold will break..."
"...to pieces plenty but can't do a thing!"
"I'm scared..." a feeling understood
"It hurt's..." A voice I know too well and should
wouldn't it be nice
if one day
we can be saved
like in a fairytale
I broke out words knocked on your heart
This feeling's new, don't know where to start
We'll talk to each other like
Hey it doesn't matter!
It's all right!
So please just don't cry!
If "me" inside and I can laugh
Our hearts are one and are leaving the past
Maybe even now my heart that's saving others is something closer to BRAVE
And as I know I'm turning every page
I'm moving forward every day
I hear
the voices
from beyond
that old door
never again
