about

The second song talks about bravery; or more so, the lack of bravery.
We all have the ability to save the day when we come across certain situations in life, but to put our own life at risk for someone else might not seem like the logical thing to do at that very moment.
Beforehand, or afterwards, it’s a uppercut, punch, flash a smile and rescue with a catchy comeback line “daydream”. But in the moment, when faced with actual danger, you might not be so brave.
This song really doubles down on the fear from which you can’t move forward until you overcome it.

lyrics

(I’m not that brave)
Anything that I wanted to be
Anything that I wanted to dream has
Now gone under
Has now gone under

Take the tears from my eyes
As I cry for the lives that I couldn’t protect
That I couldn’t protect
They’re six feet under
And I’m above

How did my fate not twist
Into their fate
I wonder every day
That I breathe
That I’m able to breathe

How should I keep going on
If at the end there is no one to save
No one to save
I’m not that brave

Anything that I wanted to find
Anything that I had on my mind has
Now gone under
Has now gone under

Take my soul
Take it all
Hide it somewhere that I’ll never go
I’m not allowed to go
I’ll never go
No

How did my fate not twist
Into their fate
I wonder every day
That I breathe
That I’m able to breathe

How should I keep going on
If at the end there is no one to save
No one to save
I’m not that brave

I’m not that brave
(I’m not that brave)

How did my fate not twist
Into their fate
I wonder every day
That I breathe
That I’m able to breathe

How should I keep going on
If at the end there is no one to save
No one to save
I’m not that brave
