Tick Tick

What is it That girl who rides that rollercoaster, The one that brings others fear— They call her Brave The truth is she lives for thrill Is it Brave if it doesn’t shake her to the core ? That boy that saved his dog from the pool; They call him Brave, that he has courage— He loves the water Why is he Brave? What is it about them? When I work up the courage to speak up in class When I introduce myself to the new When I try to be brave When I am me It’s not brave When I am brave they call it “normal” When he barley passes the math test, he relishes in praise While I get the top grade, But “I didn’t try that hard, it comes easy to me” What is it about them? Why does it affect me Why doesn’t it affect me When I am brave they call it “normal” But “normal” is hard
