I'll put on my brave face
I won't tell you how I feel
Take the world at my pace
And live a life that's not ideal
And when this feeling washes over me
And I don't know why
I just put on my brave face and a smile
This is how I see myself
No matter what you say
A story that would promise well
But the pages turned away
And when this feeling washes over me
And I don't know why
I just put on my brave face and a smile
No hi, just walk on by
No rush to hear my name
Your life, the city lights
One more way to stake your claim
I'll ask you for your secret
When my life begins to stall
I'll use my insecurity
To find a place that's safe to fall
And when this feeling washes over me
And I don't know why
I'll just put on my brave face
Put on my brave face
I'll just put on my brave face and a smile
Put on my brave face
Put on my brave face
I'll just put on my brave face
And a smile
