  • Angels lift you off the ground
    I've got shadows weighing me down
    Still you believe, you believe in me
    I wish I could feel that way

    You can trust so easily
    I can't give you all of me
    Stay holding on, when you should be gone
    I wish I was that brave

    You go to war for love like a soldier
    I wanna run away
    You're never scared to walk through the fire
    I wish I had your faith
    I turned away knowing my heart could break
    I'm so afraid to lay down my armor
    I'm not brave, I'm not brave

    Keep my shield up constantly
    Stop these arrows piercing me
    Now I don't know how, how to put it down
    I wish I was that brave

    You go to war for love like a soldier
    I wanna run away
    You're never scared to walk through the fire
    I wish I had your faith
    I turned away knowing my heart could break
    I'm so afraid to lay down my armor
    I'm not brave, I'm not brave

    Still you believe, you believe in me
    I wish I was that brave

    You go to war for love like a soldier
    I wanna run away
    You're never scared to walk through the fire
    I wish I had your faith
    I turned away knowing my heart could break
    I'm so afraid to lay down my armour
    I'm not brave, I'm not brave
