Verse Why am I sobbing hugely in his dream?
I want to find out what it means
He said he trusted me to work it out
I can exhale when there’s no doubt
Chorus I might know why I’m weeping
I might know why I care
I think my heart is leaping
Because I took the dare
Verse I’m always scratching words on what I feel
Scraping to find out what is real
I know that others have much more to grieve
A starry brightness I must weave
Chorus I might know why I’m weeping
I might know why I care
I think my heart is leaping
Because I took the dare
Bridge I dig my talent from the ground
Multiply then lay it down
Good and faithful joy just might be found
I dig my talent from the ground
Multiply then lay it down
Good and faithful joy just might be found
Interlude Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na
Verse Maybe my sobbing was a lightening
Letting me loose so I can sing
It’s kinda hard to speak the words out loud
But I am worthy, bold and proud
(Let’s go)
Chorus I might know why I’m weeping
I might know why I care
I think my heart is leaping
Because I took the dare
Chorus I know now why I’m weeping
I know just why I care
I feel my heart is leaping
Because I took the dare
Outro Na na na na na na na na na na (Oh, yeah I took the dare)
Na na na na na na na na (Why don’t you take the dare?)
Na na na na na na na na na na (Come on and take the dare)
Na na na na na na na na
