Lyrics
The Brave
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Never get close to the flame because the flame it can burn
Better to not play the game than never to win at your turn
Better to be on your own than trust a friend might betray
Better not follow a dream - they don't come true anyway
Play to win not scared to lose
Walk the path you choose
Fortune favours the brave
Risking it all again and again
Fortune favours the brave
Fall after fall they climb up again
Ignore the doubt and the fear, traitors to all you believe
Now that you're getting so near, still they just try to deceive
Taking it risk at a time, trying to live every day
Trying to know your own mind, never to care what they say
