For a Pessimist, I'm Pretty Optimistic

[Intro] 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've got a lot of nerve [Hook] So what did you think I would say No, you can't run away No, you can't run away So what did you think I would say No, you can't run away No, you can't run away You wouldn't I never wanted to say this You never wanted to stay I put my faith in you So much faith And then you just threw it away You threw it away [Verse 1] I'm not so naïve My sorry eyes can see The way you fight shy Of almost everything Well, if you give up You'll get what you deserve [Hook] [Verse 2] 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 about it now [Hook]
