I dare you to fail In the silence of your home I dare you to fail So why don’t you try You can break the barrier if the time is right And with a little luck and light I dare you to try I dare you to succeed I dare you to follow your dreams And in the absence of your mind I dare you to try No one in this room needs a smile More than you do No one in this room needs to smile More than you do I dare you to give in You can find your voice in a movie while crying And you can keep lying But I dare you to win I dare you to swim And in the absence of time And which that matters you don’t mind I hope you really try I dare you to drown And when the waves wash you back to solid ground And you realize that all the strength it took To defeat your dream’s labor and laugh I dare you to wager your craft No one in this room needs a smile More than you do No one in this room needs to smile More than you do You and I We are alike I dare you to fall so hard you break your mind Because those named the greatest dared those in line
