Like a car chase
On the highway
We were going nowhere real fast

I let your tear my heart out
I wear it on my sleeve now
I thought I'd never take my foot off the gas


You made me smear my makeup
Nothing but dried, black mascara

I'm letting it go?

Tears won't last forever

Life only gets better
When the world lets me down
I'll paint a smile on,

Paint a smile on

Break my heart, it won't matter

I'll piece it back together
When the world lets me down
I'll paint a smile on,

Paint a smile on

I'm gonna say

Oh, oh woah, oh-oh, oh woah
I'm gonna say
Oh, oh woah, oh-oh, oh woah

I'm gonna say
Oh, oh woah, oh-oh, oh woah


I'll paint a smile on,
Paint a smile on


I'll forgive you
But I'd never kiss you
You'll miss my strawberry lipstick

Yeah, I hope it hit you
Just like a missile
Promise you'll never find a better chick


You made me smear my makeup
Nothing but dried, black mascara

I'm letting it go?

Tears won't last forever

Life only gets better
When the world lets me down
I'll paint a smile on,

Paint a smile on

Break my heart, it won't matter

I'll piece it back together
When the world lets me down
I'll paint a smile on,

Paint a smile on

And I'm gonna say

Oh, oh woah, oh-oh, oh woah
And I'm gonna say
Oh, oh woah, oh-oh, oh woah

And I'm gonna say
Oh, oh woah, oh-oh, oh woah


I'll paint a smile on,
Paint a smile on


I'm gonna keep my head up, precious all
It's time I feel pretty all over again
Whatever the cost, I'll take a loss

Yeah, it's time that I get back to me

Tears won't last forever

Life only gets better
When the world lets me down
I'll paint a smile on,

Paint a smile on

Break my heart, it won't matter
I'll piece it back together
When the world lets me down

I'll paint a smile on,
Paint a smile on

And I'm gonna say
Oh, oh woah, oh-oh, oh woah

And I'm gonna say
Oh, oh woah, oh-oh, oh woah
And I'm gonna say
Oh, oh woah, oh-oh, oh woah
