I didn’t come from much,
but I had a head of golden dreams.
I did it for myself
I didn’t know what love could mean.
cuz I was always such a runaway
I had my alibis and my stowaways
but when I met you I couldn’t get away
I have been through pain
in the dark like a knife
I’ve been betrayed oh
You showed me how to love
like a spark in the night
and not be afraid oh
you taught me how to be brave
you taught me how to be brave
We climbed up to the roof
drinking whisky in the rain
but I wouldn’t let you in
my life revolved around escape
cuz I was always such a runaway
trying to cheat my way right through the game
but when you touched me I couldn’t get away
I have been through pain
in the dark like a knife
I’ve been betrayed oh
You showed me how to love
like a spark in the night
and not be afraid oh
you taught me how to be brave
you taught me how to be brave
call me a liar
but there’s hope in my wires
I keep taking a chance
keep rolling the dice
in the heat of the fire
I am alive yeah
cuz you took me higher
I’ve got mistakes
this shit that I’ve made
but we are still brave
I have been through pain
in the dark like a knife
I’ve been betrayed oh
You showed me how to love
like a spark in the night
and not be afraid oh
you taught me how to be brave
you taught me how to be brave
