Memoirs of a Pessimist
One two three four five am on a Tuesday
I know I should be fast asleep by now
But I've got far too many things on my mind
I used to be happy, I can't remember how
I'm tired of the disconnect
And hopes that perish before they start
I'm tired of having to collect
The remnants of my stubborn heart
I have made a list
Of all these broken promises
Call me a pessimist
All I do is reminisce
About the distant times
Where my fate had felt like mine
I know I'm a pessimist
But I can't breathe like this
Weeks and months and years go by without purpose
I know, I know, I should cherish each one
But it's an endless cycle of empty
And it's mistakes that cannot be undone
I'm tired of the disconnect
And hopes that perish before they start
I'm tired of having to collect
The remnants of my stubborn heart
I have made a list
Of all these broken promises
Call me a pessimist
All I do is reminisce
About the distant times
Where my fate had felt like mine
I know I'm a pessimist
But I can't breathe like this
Tell me to be positive
Im telling you that I am
Giving all I got to hold on
Tell me to put on a smile
Tell me is it worthwhile
When everyone leaves before dawn
Tell me to be positive
I'm telling you that I am
Giving all I got to hold on
Tell me to put on a smile
Tell me is it worthwhile
When everyone leaves before dawn
I have made a list
Of all these broken promises
Call me a pessimist
All I do is reminisce
About the distant times
Where my fate had felt like mine
I know I'm a pessimist
But I can't breathe like this
I know I should be fast asleep by now
But I've got far too many things on my mind
I used to be happy, I can't remember how
I'm tired of the disconnect
And hopes that perish before they start
I'm tired of having to collect
The remnants of my stubborn heart
I have made a list
Of all these broken promises
Call me a pessimist
All I do is reminisce
About the distant times
Where my fate had felt like mine
I know I'm a pessimist
But I can't breathe like this
Weeks and months and years go by without purpose
I know, I know, I should cherish each one
But it's an endless cycle of empty
And it's mistakes that cannot be undone
I'm tired of the disconnect
And hopes that perish before they start
I'm tired of having to collect
The remnants of my stubborn heart
I have made a list
Of all these broken promises
Call me a pessimist
All I do is reminisce
About the distant times
Where my fate had felt like mine
I know I'm a pessimist
But I can't breathe like this
Tell me to be positive
Im telling you that I am
Giving all I got to hold on
Tell me to put on a smile
Tell me is it worthwhile
When everyone leaves before dawn
Tell me to be positive
I'm telling you that I am
Giving all I got to hold on
Tell me to put on a smile
Tell me is it worthwhile
When everyone leaves before dawn
I have made a list
Of all these broken promises
Call me a pessimist
All I do is reminisce
About the distant times
Where my fate had felt like mine
I know I'm a pessimist
But I can't breathe like this
