lyrics

A BRAVER PLACE
Jon Simpson © 2011 BugNog Music

he couldn't bring himself to apology
and so it drifted away on his words
self-preservation, the priority
always a question of what we will serve

oh - we hold a lot of insecurity
oh - we carry so much fear in our hearts

what are we supposed to do
when trust is hard to find and so easy to lose
and our union is broken without so much as a fight
how are we supposed to win
if every bridge that we build keeps crumbling in
and we'd rather protect our wounds than bring them into the light

she thought she'd found a friend of integrity
and a promise of love that was pure
but the thorns of doubt-tangled memories
strangled everything that was sure

if only we could learn each seed we sow brings its return
and a risk and can lead to treasures more than gold
might we push all dread aside and love enough to swallow pride
to discover a braver place within our souls
