Keeping up appearances, don't break now

We're buckled from the weight

Pretend to laugh, but don't laugh too loud
[Pre-Chorus]

Do you feel the pressure building?
D C
The anger spilling out now

Meanwhile, the cracks have formed on the masks we've worn up 'til now

We are far from perfect

We are bruised, we are broken

But we are goddamn works of art

We're clearing paths, we're locked by storms

We're finding the beauty
In what you've ignored
