Courage Lyrics by Orianthi

Believe (II)

0

[Intro: Orianthi]
Ooh, hey, yeah
Ooh, whoa, hey, yeah
Ooh, hey, yeah
Ooh, whoa, hey, yeah

[Verse 1: Orianthi]
Take all my vicious words
And turn them into something good
Take all my preconceptions
And let the truth be understood

[Verse 2: Lacey Sturm]
Take all my prized possessions
And leave only what I need
Take all my pieces of doubt
And let me be what's underneath

[Chorus: Orianthi]
Courage is when you're afraid
But you keep on moving anyway
Well, courage is when you're in pain
But you keep on living anyway

[Post-Chorus: Orianthi]
Ooh, hey, yeah
Ooh, whoa, hey, yeah

[Verse 2: Orianthi with Lacey Sturm]
We all have excuses why
We're living in fear, something in us dies
And like a bird with broken wings
It's not how high he flies, but the song he sings

[Chorus: Orianthi]
Courage is when you're afraid
But you keep on moving anyway
Well, courage is when you're in pain
But you keep on living anyway

[Bridge: Orianthi & Lacey Sturm]
It's not how many times you've been knocked down
It's how many times you get back up

[Chorus: Orianthi & Lacey Sturm]
Courage is when you've lost your way
But you find your strength anyway
Courage is when you're afraid
Courage is a burning faith
Courage is when you make a change
And you keep on living anyway (Anyway)

[Outro: Orianthi& Lacey Sturm]
(Ooh, hey, yeah)
You keep on giving anyway
(Ooh, hey, yeah)
It's when you're in pain, but you keep moving anyway
And you keep on loving anyway
