(Verse 1)
Like a car chase
On the highway
We were going nowhere real fast
I let you tear my heart out
I wear it on my sleeve now
Though I'd never take my foot off the gas
(Bridge)
You made me smear my make up
Nothing but dried black mascara
I'm letting it go
(Chorus)
Tears won't last forever
Life only gets better
When the world lets me down
I paint a smile on , paint a smile on
Break my heart won't matter
I'll piece it back together
When the world lets me down
I paint a smile on , paint a smile on
Everybody say
Ah ah oh ah ah oh oh x3
Now paint a smile on , paint a smile on
(Verse 2)
I'll forgive you
But I'll never kiss you
You'll miss my strawberry lipstick , yeah
Hope it hits you
Like a missile
Promise you 'll never find a better chick
(Bridge)
You made me smear my make up
Nothing but dried black mascara
I'm letting it go
(Chorus)
Tears won't last forever
Life only gets better
When the world lets me down
I paint a smile on , paint a smile on
Break my heart won't matter
I'll piece it back together
When the world lets me down
I paint a smile on , paint a smile on
Everybody say
Ah ah oh ah ah oh oh x3
Now paint a smile on , paint a smile on
(Breakdown)
I'm gonna keep my head up
Brush this off
It's time I feel pretty all over again
Whatever the cost , I'll take a loss , yeah
Its time that I get back to me
(Chorus)
Tears won't last forever
Life only gets better
When the world lets me down
I paint a smile on , paint a smile on
Break my heart won't matter
I'll piece it back together
When the world lets me down
I paint a smile on , paint a smile on
Everybody say
Ah ah oh ah ah oh oh x3
Now paint a smile on , paint a smile on
