For a Pessimist, I'm Pretty Optimistic (live) Lyrics

Just talk yourself up
And tear yourself down
You ripped through one wall
Now find a way around
Well, what's the problem?
You've got a lot of nerve
So what'd you think I would say?
No, you can't run away, you can't run away
So what'd you think I would say?
No, you can't run away, 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

I'm not so naïve
My sorry eyes can see
So when you're flyin' shy
Of almost everything
Well, if you give up
You'll get what you deserve
So what'd you think I would say?
No, you can't run away, you can't run away
So what'd you think I would say?
No, you can't run away, 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

You 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

I never wanted to say this
You never wanted to stay with me
I put my faith in you, so much faith
And then you just threw it away

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
