A Song For The Optimists Lyrics

(Blow the last candle out...let the wax harden
I wish I could stop crying... I wish someone still loved me) x 2
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 th silver linings are getting harder and harder to manufacture and the smiles are becoming so difficult for me to fake
(What do I have to do, or who do I have to kill, to get what I want... what I need)x2
Happiness is an emotion I was born to this world without,
nothing pleases me... I cannot be satiated
Thru this toil I will breed my own distress and destroy my best hopes,
fuck up the only things I love...
I WATCHED MY DREAMS DIE...
I watched my aspirations crash to the ground on the backs of the angels that
I've slain...
But I meant so well, I tried to hard, gave every ounce of my soul, to what
end...
Desolation, desire, exhale, pass away...
