you should’ve said no, you should’ve gone home

This album is called “FEARLESS”, and I guess I’d like to clarify why we chose that as the title. To me, “FEARLESS” is not theabsence of fear. It’s not being completely unafraid. To me, FEARLESS is having fears. FEARLESS is having doubts. Lots ofthem. To me, FEARLESS is living in spite of those things that scare you to death. FEARLESS is falling madly in love again,even though you’ve been hurt before. FEARLESS is walking into your freshmen year of high school at fifteen. FEARLESS isgetting back up and fighting for what you want over and over again…even though every time you’ve tried before, you’ve lost. It’sFEARLESS to have faith that someday things will change. FEARLESS is having the courage to say goodbye to someone whoonly hurts you, even if you can’t breathe without them. I think it’s FEARLESS to fall for your best friend, even though he’s in love withsomeone else. And when someone apologizes to you enough times for things they’ll never stop doing, I think it’s FEARLESS to stopbelieving them. It’s FEARLESS to say “you’re NOT sorry”, and walk away. I think loving someone despite what people think isFEARLESS. I think allowing yourself to cry on the bathroom floor is FEARLESS. Letting go is FEARLESS. Then, movingon and being alright…That’s FEARLESS too. But no matter what love throws at you, you have to believe in it. You have to believe inlove stories and prince charmings and happily ever after. That’s why I write these songs. Because I think love is FEARLESS. THANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOUI want to thank my family. Austin, thank you for understanding all of this and never getting frustrated. I love you with all my heart and I’mso proud of you. Mom, you’re my best friend and your laugh keeps me sane.
