A Song For The Optimists

Blow the last candle out
 Let the wax harden
 I wish I could stop crying
 I wish that someone still loved me
 Blow the last candle out
 Let the wax harden
 I wish I could stop crying
 I wish that someone still loved me
 Just breathe and focus
 How can I when the air is so cold and empty
 That my lungs froze right in my chest?
 I'll be honest
 The silver linings are getting harder and harder to manufacture
 And the smiles are so difficult to fake
 I'll be honest
 The silver linings
 Are getting harder and harder to manufacture
 And the smiles are becoming so difficult for me to fake
 My time is now
 And I'll take a stand
 What do I have to do
 Or who do I have to kill
 To get what I want... What I need?
 What do I have to do
 Or who do I have to kill
 To get what I want... What I need?
 Happiness is an emotion
 I was born to this world without
 Nothing pleases me
 I can never be satiated
 Through this toil I will breed my own distress
 And destroy my best hopes
 Fuck up the only things (that I love)
 I watched my aspirations crash into the ground
 On the backs of the angels that I've slain
 But I meant so well
 I tried so hard
 Gave every bit of my soul
 To what end?
 To what end?
 Desolation, desire, exhale, pass away
 Desolation, desire, exhale, pass away
 Desolation, desire, exhale, pass away.
