| Mary fought back tears when she saw that far off look in his eyes
|
| Said what’d they do to you baby I can feel you dying inside
|
| I got your six just like you’ve always had mine
|
| And these invisible scars don’t change the man you are
|
| And everything’s gonna be all right
|
| Put on your brave face Mary
|
| Put on your brave face
|
| Put on your brave face Mary
|
| Put on your brave face
|
| Well the VA’s understaffed and the lines are around the block
|
| So he calls up the hotline but nobody there has the time to talk
|
| They’re backed up for days and they’re dealing with
|
| Demons they don’t understand
|
| Mary holds the line and he takes matters in to his own hands
|
| Put on your brave face Mary
|
| Put on you brace face
|
| Put on your brave face Mary
|
| Put on you brace face
|
| Now he’s fighting for his life and Mary she’s a rock
|
| It’s all over the news so Washington’s gearing up to talk the talk
|
| Seven hundred billion and somehow not enough to go around
|

|
| Put on your brave face Mary
|
| Put on you brace face
|
| Put on your brave face Mary
|
| Put on you brace face
|
| Put on your brave face Mary
|
| Put on you brace face
|
| Put on your brave face Mary |
