Lyrics My Brightest Diamond

My Brightest Diamond

Be Brave

I am the bird in water, the whale on sand

I am the flood, the fire, the oil spill

I'm feeling scared and I am overwhelmed

And so I don my mask and finger bells

Sh-sh-sh-shara, now get to work

Sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-shara, this is going to hurt

Be brave, dear one, be changed or be undone

Be brave, dear one, be changed or be undone, undone

I am the slave, I'm under house arrest

I am the beater, I am beaten for less

Than being punk and feeling anger swell

And so I don my beaded dress and finger bells

Sh-sh-sh-shara, now get to work

Sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-shara, this is going to hurt

Be brave, dear one, be changed or be undone

Be brave, dear one, be changed or be undone, undone

It's so hard, it's so heavy to be hungry to be happy

It's alright, it's so easy just to breathe

It's so hard, it's so heavy to be hungry to be happy

It's alright, it's so easy just to breathe

Oh god, what would you do with me?

Oh god, what's my responsibility?

Oh god, what would you do with me?

Oh god, what's my responsibility?

Sh-sh-sh-shara, now get to work

Sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-shara, this is going to hurt

Be brave, dear one, be changed or be undone

Be brave, dear one, be changed or be undone

I'll be brave, dear one be changed or be undone

Be brave, dear one, be changed, be changed

Be changed, changed
