Brave

I can hear tigers purring in yards
Just waiting for them to be
Found by someone who wouldn’t run
If they show love to keep

Echoes and cars, bodies and bruises
Features of mystery
My broken-heart will break the rules
Right where the tiger is (hahahaha)

Now, where you are now
All alone (mm)
Sounds of whisper are loud on it’s own (mm)
When you choose to walk away
You’re making me choose to stay here
Making me brave
Making me

I can be softly delicate, darling
But I can also pierce (I can also pierce)
Can’t see my thorns, ‘cause they’re invisible but, you’ll believe me when we kiss

My fickle mindless thoughts are just blindness, I owe it all to myself
Just learned how bad it feels to be really hated by the one you treated well
(I don’t mean I was good at nothing, ‘cause I was so good)

Now, where you are now
All alone (mm)
Sounds of whisper are loud on it’s own (mm)
When you choose to walk away
You’re making me choose to stay here
Making me brave
Making me brave

And it seems that now
You’ll see the tiger’s fury closely
And it’s back now
Faster than you could imagine
I'm rising from the ashes, tough
Covered up my gashes, now
Chasing you like karma does
Don’t dare trip, I’ll sharpen all the corners ‘round

Now, where you are now
All alone (oh)
Sounds of whisper are loud on it’s own (on it’s own, ah)
When you choose to walk away
You’re making me choose to stay here (here)
Making me brave (making me brave)
Making me (making me)
