lyrics

A Braver Smile

You say that you can see
exactly how I feel
if you notice something in my eye
don’t you pay it any mind

Things are bound to soon be better
in not too long a while
I’ll pretend like it don’t matter
and I’ll put on a braver smile

Life seems to work that way
death and doubt and disarray
scant consolation in the blues
but I suppose I’ll make it through

Things are bound to soon be better
in not too long a while
I’ll pretend like it don’t matter
and I’ll put on a braver smile

It ain’t over yet
how could I forget
the child-size casket brung
won’t ever be over till I’m done

I’ll soon act like I’m better
won’t be too long a while
I’ll pretend like it don’t matter
and I’ll put on a braver smile
