Bravebird Lyrics by Amel Larrieux

Bravebird

2004

[Verse 1]
In a land far away
Where the sun doesn't spare a soul
And a twisted tradition
Has a girl in a strangle hold
Lies a desert with the footprints
Of little girls with a secret
Of a pain that you and I could never know
[Verse 2]
Little feet running fast as they can
Like a bird in flight
Through the days of sand
With a fire in the sky and through indigo nights
She runs away from a life spent
Being witness to other unwilling participants
Of a pain that you and I could never know
[Chorus]
You’re a bravebird
Of the rarest kind
You may be one of the walking wounded
But still you fly
You’re a bravebird
You put yourself on the line
When you shared your secret with the world
You saved another mothers child
[Verse 3]
As she speaks you can tell
That the words are not easy to say
They hold the power to transport her
Back to that impossible day
But she hasn't any regrets
'Cause she won't become a woman with a secret
Of a pain that you and I could never know
That you and I could never know
That you and I could never know
