Lyrics : Brave Faces, Everyone

Broken nose
Another textured ceiling
I know where I am
I’ll pretend like I’m lost
Sometimes I want to vanish completely
Call in sick from life
I woke up and didn’t feel better
Don’t know why I’d act surprised
At least each year is getting shorter
And the ocean’s on the rise

I’m terrified there’s no more waiting
I’m running out of what comes next
Running through jobs I’m gonna hate
Living paycheck to paycheck
Like my parents
And their parents
And their parents before them
I should be happy with my personal effects
But I’ve got my encore
I’m back living on their floor

I feel like burning down my life again
Watch the fire spread over my skin
Until I’m nothing left but skeleton

I saw a sign in Hannover
That said “the future is in motion.”
But the motion has me sick
It’s okay I’m sick of standing
Still paying off a good idea
From when I was 23
A life spent living off loans

But I still don’t know what I love
I’m over-leveraged
My credit’s gone weak
And the city turned off the power
So you know it’s dark most of the week
But if I burn this place down
We’d have some heat
At least I’m seeing things more positively
Because I swear to god, I’m an optimist

I feel like burning down my life again
Watch the fire spread over my skin
Until I’m nothing left but skeleton
A pile of dust that free just floating in the wind

Brave faces everyone
I’m always looking up
And you’re jumping

But this world, it has no empathy
We’ll never find our own place
And if nothing gets better
It’s as bad as it seems
Why can’t we say fuck it?
You know it’s not what we need

Because we're just so fucking tired
If you're not okay
I'm feeling lower than anyone
They're praying for you
I'm tired anyway
Brave faces everyone
Just let me ruin my guts tonight
It can't be this bleak forever
Pointing out dead dogs on the road
I'm tired anyway
This is all you get
Hoping all this time but all you find is
It gets harder doesn't it

I’m sick of yelling at strangers
Don’t want to do this forever
When it all burns down
Will you carry me over?
We don't have to fix everything at once
We were never broken
Life's just very long
Brave faces, everyone
