If I Dare

If I dare to ask you
I dare it to be true
If I dare to risk it
I know that I'm willing to
If I dare to want this
To want more than I have
Than I dare to believe
I'll have it in the end
You climbed the mountaint
Send pictures of the view
And still cant believe when I started climbing too
You havent heard that
I'm not afraid to fall
That im not deterred yet
Until I tell them all
I am holding out for more than what I have now
I'm holding out
I don't want your pity
I wont use your little scraps
I don't build my cities
With what could get taken back
I don't need permission
To rise up when it hurts
You don't have to listen but you'll hear me mark my words
I am holding out
To more than what I have now
I'm holdIng out
When the room gets dark and I am quiet
Theres a voice thats soft like someones silhouette
Saying don't let me go yet
I am holding out
I am holding out
For more than what I have now
I'll hold it out
If I dare to ask it
And I dare it to be true
If I dare to risk it
I know that I'm willing to
If I dare to want this
To want more than I have
Than I dare to believe
Ill have it in the end
