Spanish Love Songs
Brave Faces, Everyone (Etc Version)
[Verse 1]
Broken nose, another textured ceiling
Know where I am, pretend like I'm lost
Sometimes I wanna vanish completely
Call in sick from life
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
'Cause I'm terrified there's no more waiting
Runnin' out of what comes next
Run from jobs I'm gonna hate
Livin' paycheck to paycheck
Like my parents, thеir parents
Their parents bеfore them
Should be happy I have no personal effects
I've got my encore
I'm back livin' on their floor
[Chorus]
I feel like burnin' down my life again
Watch the fire spread over my skin
Until there's nothin' left but skeleton
[Verse 2]
I saw a sign in Hanover
Said, "The future is in motion"
But the motion has me sick
It's okay, I'm sick of standing
I'm still paying off a good idea
From when I was twenty-three
A life spent living off loans
And I still don't know
What I love, I'm over-leveraged
My credit's gone weak
The city turned off the power
So it's dark most of the week
But if I burn this place down
We'd have some heat
At least I'm seein' things more positively
Because I swear to God, I'm an optimist
[Chorus]
But I feel like burnin' down my life again
Watch the fire spread over my skin
Until there's nothin' 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
[Bridge]
(But this world, it has no empathy)
(We'll never find our own place)
(And if nothin' gets better)
(It's as bad as it seems)
(And we can't just say, "Fuck it")
(You know it's not what we need)
[Outro]
I'm sick of yelling at strangers, don't wanna do this forever
(But this world, it has no empathy)
When it all burns down, will you carry me over?
(We'll never find our own place)
We don't have to fix everything at once
(Nothing gets better, it's as bad as it seems)
We were never broken, life's just very long
(We can't just say, "Fuck it," you know it's not what we need)
Brave faces, everyone
I'm sick of yelling at strangers, don't wanna do this forever
(Because this world, it has no empathy)
When it all burns down, will you carry me over?
(We'll never find our own place)
We don't have to fix everything at once
(Nothing gets better, it's as bad as it seems)
We were never broken, life's just very long
(We can't just say, "Fuck it," you know it's not what we need)
Brave faces, everyone
I'm sick of yelling at strangers, don't wanna do this forever
(But this world, it has no empathy)
When it all burns down, will you carry me over?
(We'll never find our own place)
We don't have to fix everything at once
(Nothing gets better, it's as bad as it seems)
We were never broken, life's just very long
(We can't just say, "Fuck it," you know it's not what we need)
Brave faces, everyone
