Brave As a Noun by AJJ

About Brave As a Noun:

“Brave As a Noun” is the second track on AJJ’s sophomore album, People That Can Eat People Are the Luckiest People in the World, and is generally considered one of their signature songs. It details singer-songwriter Sean Bonnette’s anxiety and depression, and his frustration with how they hold him back.

The song’s title is also a clever double entendre. Literally speaking, in the last line Sean grammatically uses the word “brave” as a noun. However, the title also conveys a sense of uncertainty and self-doubt, as Sean is unable to find a specific noun to compare his bravery to.

I'm afraid to leave the house, I'm as timid as a mouse

I'm afraid if I go out, I'll outwear my welcome

I am not a courageous man, I don't have any big lasting plans

I'm too cowardly to take a stand, I wanna keep my nose clean

And it's sad to know that we're not alone in this

And it's sad to know there's no honest way out

[malaisequotes]

“It's sad to know that we're not alone in this, and it's sad to know there's no honest way out. In this life we lead, we can conquer everything—if we could just get the braves to get out of bed in the morning.”

I could go off the deep end

I could kill all my best friends

I could follow those stylish trends

and God knows I could make amends
