[Intro] [Verse 1] Going south on a north-bound train With all the emptiness and nothing that I'ved gained Pockets full of sand and gravel in my boots I'm a brave young man, and I've got nothing left to lose [Verse 2] Giving more than what you got can get you k**ed But all the same, I thrive on loneliness and thrills I've taken shots that left me sleeping in the dust I'm a brave young man, and I've got little more than lust [Chorus] But I've travelled far away to places I've not been before and I've lost words to say Preaching to those who hate my tongue I'm a man who's brave and young [Intro] [Verse 3] I've given in to darker things Back when my head was strong but my mind was weak
I've spoken out amongst a crowd of sleeping dogs I'm a brave young man, but I don't know where I belong [Chorus] But I've travelled far away to places I've not been before and I've lost words to say Preaching to those who hate my tongue I'm a man who's brave and young [Interlude] Ah ah ah, Ah ah ah Ah ah ah, Ah ah ah [Chorus] I've travelled far away to places I've not been before And I've lost words to say Preaching to those who hate my tongue I'm a man who's brave and young [Verse 4] I've told myself that I'm a better man than most But to my friends I'm as see-through as a ghost They tell me what I need and beg me not to stay But I'm a brave young man, and I've got nothing left to say
