"Keeping Your Head Up" is a single by English musician Birdy. It was written by Wayne Hector, Steve Mac, and Birdy for her third studio album, Beautiful Lies (2016). The song was released as the album's first single on 1 January 2016.
A music video was first released onto Facebook on 28 January 2016 and a day after on YouTube at a total length of three minutes and thirty-six seconds. The video begins with Birdy lying down on her bed and as the camera gets close to her eye, we see what is in her mind. Demons and angels appear in her way throughout the video. In the end, Birdy is again shown in the bedroom where she is still lying down. The video was directed by Chris Turner (Favourite Color Black).
