Home of the Brave Lyrics

Born with a cleft brain
You won't be asked back again
In front of the mirror
With unswerving purpose
They didn't like your suit or your pants
Your shoes are on backwards
Because of a different idea of romance
If you're not careful, you'll be next
If you're not careful, you'll be next

Home of the brave, it's on videotape
Home of the brave, covers over your head
Home of the brave, down to a basement flat
Home of the brave, home of the brave
Home of the brave

You got a bloody nose from the girl in 219
You got a bloody nose from the U-235
Newboys want to intrude on your hate nest
Holes in your head from the brain test
You stepped on all the cracks
And you broke your mother's back
You stepped on all the cracks
And you broke your mother's back

Home of the brave
And a houseful of bastards
Home of the brave
Just a fucking slave
Home of the brave
It is a real home
Home of the brave, home of the brave
Home of the brave

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
