For A Pessimist, I'm Pretty Optimistic (Live)

Appears on:

Final RIOT!

Lyrics:

VERSE ONE:
just talk yourself up and tear yourself down
you've hit your one wall, now find a way around
well, what's the problem? you got a lot of nerve

PRE:
so what did you think i would say?
no you can't run away
no you can't run away... you wouldn't

CHORUS:
i never wanted to say it...
you never wanted to stay
i put my faith in you so much faith and then you...
just threw it away

VERSE TWO:
i'm not so naive - my sorry eyes can see
the way you fight shy of almost everything
well, if you give up you'll get what you deserve

PRE:
so what did you think i would say?
no you can't run away
no you can't run away... you wouldn't would you?

CHORUS:
i never wanted to say it...
but you never wanted to stay
i put my faith in you so much faith and then you...
just threw it away

BRIDGE:
you were finished long before...
we had even seen the start.
why don't you stand up? be a man about it?
fight with your bare hands how bout it?

CHORUS:
i never wanted to say it...
but you never wanted to stay
i put my faith in you so much faith and then you...
just threw it away
