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 draughty 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 this 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
