Brave Face - Music and lyrics (c) 2017 Bayard Russell

How do you stay strong When change is taking so long How do you stay strong When the right is feeling so wrong So I put on my brave face Though my heart is in a bad place How do I stay strong When change is taking so long

What do you say We only listen to our own voice What do you choose We only care about our own choice I'm biting off my nails Watch in disbelief at our epic fails But take a look out there You're still here And I still care

What do you fight Our leaders pay us no mind What do you write We only read the headline I'm pulling out my hair Asking myself why the world's not fair But take a look out there I'm still here And you still care!

Change happens every day Nothing stays the same If we keep chipping away Nothing set in stone Just work it to the bone You are not Alone

Come on let's stay strong Change will come before long Come on let's stay strong Dancing to our fight songs Put on your brave face Your heart is in the right place Come on let's stay strong Change will come before long

Put on your brave face
