Brave

Archived song - 2017

Pent up scream stuck in my throat

Shove it down so no one knows

I just smile, say I’m ok

It leaves my eyes at the end of the day

(Chorus)

I’m shuddering. Struggling.

Flailing for some peace in this world we’re in

But I’m not sure

Not anymore

Hard to fly when you’re lying on the floor

But you won’t take me

And you won’t break me

I will try

I will try

Troubled feelings in my bed

Body’s heavy, feels like lead

I just lie, say I’m ok

Empty shell all through the day

(Chorus)

I’m shuddering. Struggling.

Flailing for some peace in this world we’re in

But I’m not sure

Not anymore

Hard to fly when you’re lying on the floor

But you won’t take me

And you won’t break me

I will try

I will try

(Bridge)

I will try tonight

Try to be alright

Terrified that I might lose this fight

I’m so scared

So unprepared

Feeling like I’m gonna drown

Knowing I might drag me

Down

Down

Down

I will try

I will try

I will try
