INTRO:

my brave face…

VERSE 1:

i’ve been living in style…

unaccustomed as i am…

to the ‘luxury life’…

(i’ve been ‘hitting the town’…
(and it didn’t hit back)

VERSE 2:

i’ve been ‘doing the ’rounds”…

unaccustomed as i am…

to the time on my hands…

(now i don’t have to tell anybody when i’m gonna get back…)

PRECHORUS 1:

ever since you went away…

i’ve had this sentimental Inclination not to change a single thing…

as i pull the sheets back on the bed…

i want to go bury my head…

…in your pillow…

CHORUS 1:

now that i’m alone again…

i can’t stop ‘breaking down’ again…

the simplest things set me off again…

and take me to that place…

where i can’t find ‘my brave face’…

where i can’t find ‘my brave face’…

my brave…my brave…my…brave…face…

(into “coke deals in the park again…”)

VERSE 3:

i’ve been ‘living a lie’…
(unaccustomed as i am)

to the work of a ‘housewife’…

i’ve been breaking up dirty dishes…
(and throwing them away)

PRECHORUS 2:

ever since you left i have been trying to…
compose a “baby will you please come home” note…
…meant for you…

as i clear away another…
untouched ‘TV Dinner’
(from the table i laid for 2)

CHORUS 2:

now that i’m alone again…
i can’t stop breaking down again…
the simplest things set me off again…

and take me to that place…
where i can’t find my brave face…
where i can’t find my brave face…
my brave…my brave…my…brave…face…

my brave face…

(PS “THIS SONG BLOWS!”)
