Brave

Take my hand

Hold it tight

Tell me

Things will be alright

I am scared

You were right

These things

Always were in sight

 

Future comes

Quick as day

Soon this view

Will fade away

I'll be alone

My price to pay

Far from home

Nothing to say

 

Cost of breath

Weight of soul

A world beyond

My own control

A once clear mind

Too quickly full

Shining moments

Rendered dull

 

Take my hand

Guide me through

Help me learn

What to do

My growing up

Is overdue

I pray I'll be

As brave as you
