To Be Brave

You pinch your cheeks
Bring back the colour
Some winters can make a world of difference
But you belong here
Wed to a timezone
Of drafty hearts, of stoic arts and crafts

You try to be brave, make it go away
Leave the lights on sometimes all night
And carry on regardless
So you won't get swallowed up by the darkness

Try to be brave, don't give the game away
You're a strong one, just carry on and
No one needs to notice that there's
Only silence holding this

Always prepared to make excuses
To go along, to nod in firm agreement
But there's no rest on shaky ground
And we are guilty looking down
Just careless creatures trying to save face, so you

Try to be brave, make it go away
Leave the lights on sometimes all night
And carry on regardless
So you won't get swallowed up by the darkness

Try to be brave, don't give the game away
You're a strong one, just carry on and
No one needs to notice that there's
Only silence holding this

Try to be brave, make it go away
Leave the lights on sometimes all night
And carry on regardless
So you won't get swallowed up by the darkness
Try to be brave, don't give the game away
You're a strong one, just carry on and
No one needs to notice that there's
Only silence holding this

These are the screenshots, these are the moments we lived
To keep on smiling, to keep on smiling through it
When you've got nothing, when you've got nothing to give
Turn up the filter, don't admit it
These are the screenshots, this is the vision we lived
To keep on smiling, to keep on smiling through it
When you've got nothing, when you've got nothing to give
Turn up the filter, don't admit it
