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
