Brave Faces, Everyone

(专辑： Brave Faces Everyone - 2020)

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 I have no 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

And 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's free just floating in the wind

Brave faces everyone
I'm always looking up and you're jumping
Brave faces everyone

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

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
