Discover the story of the song > Courage – Alien Ant Farm

The song is telling the protagonist that they need to stop being so brave, even though they may think it's important. The singer reassures the protagonist that they are not a mistake, and even though they may have traveled far for their partner, who they thought was someone else, it doesn't really matter. The chorus repeats that the singer never said the protagonist was a mistake, and they are misunderstanding things.
