Fearless
Kaurna Cronin Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I might be burning
But I'm being brave faced
It don't mean much now
'Cause I know that I'm wasted
Still I wonder about you

All that I care for
Is all that is faithful
Can't say I've ever been too sure
Guess what I don't know can't be misleading
But it's hard to ignore

I need to notice
'Cause I'm not fearless
Nobodie's fearless
And you don't say it ain't true

I've built my courage
Like a concrete castle
To give you that poem
In the bottom of your draw
I can't say this lightly
I guess fate has it's own way
And who are we to choose

I need to notice
'Cause I'm not fearless
Nobodie's fearless
And you don't say it ain't true

Overall Meaning

The song "Fearless" by Kaurna Cronin speaks about the fear and uncertainty of opening up to someone after having been hurt before. The opening lines, "I might be burning, but I'm being brave-faced, it don't mean much now cause I know that I'm wasted," suggest that the singer is trying to be brave in the face of their fear and vulnerability, even though they feel that their efforts are futile. The sense of doubt and insecurity is further underscored in the next lines, where he says that he cares for all that is faithful, and yet he has never been too sure. This suggests that the singer is quite introspective and is trying to figure out what it is that he really wants.


The chorus of "Fearless" introduces the idea that nobody is truly fearless. The singer acknowledges his own vulnerability and says that he needs to notice this fact. The verses that follow speak about the effort he has put into expressing himself for his loved one, like building a "concrete castle," yet he is still wary of being hurt again. He acknowledges that fate has its own way of dealing with things, and that the best he can do is be true to himself and approach things with open eyes. Overall, the song speaks to the idea of courage and vulnerability, and how it is important to remain true to oneself even in the face of fear and uncertainty.


Line by Line Meaning

I might be burning
I am facing intense feelings of pain or passion


But I'm being brave faced
I am putting on a tough exterior to hide my vulnerability


It don't mean much now
My façade is losing its effectiveness


'Cause I know that I'm wasted
I am aware that my efforts are futile


Still I wonder about you
I am preoccupied with thoughts of you


All that I care for
The only thing that matters to me


Is all that is faithful
Is something that can be relied upon


Can't say I've ever been too sure
I am uncertain about it


Guess what I don't know can't be misleading
It is better to be ignorant than to have incorrect information


But it's hard to ignore
It is difficult to suppress my curiosity


I need to notice
I must pay attention


'Cause I'm not fearless
Because I am not courageous


Nobodie's fearless
No one is completely brave


And you don't say it ain't true
It is a universal truth


I've built my courage
I have developed my bravery


Like a concrete castle
In a solid and permanent manner


To give you that poem
To share my feelings with you through my art


In the bottom of your draw
In a private and intimate place


I can't say this lightly
I am expressing myself with sincerity and seriousness


I guess fate has it's own way
I believe that destiny plays a role in our lives


And who are we to choose
It is not always up to us to decide what will happen
