A Good Day For the Pessimist

Open his eyes!
To the fire outside
He lets out a sigh then a corner smile
"Oh look, everything's fucked"
He whispers under his breath
"I got what I wanted
Maybe it's what I deserve"

Maybe I'll get what I deserve
Maybe I won't
Maybe I won't

A good day for the pessimist
He's got a list of your mistakes
You worry that you might have missed
Your chance to ever feel awake
But he's here to tell you something
Something that you don't want to hear
A good day for the pessimist but the rest of us are
Well and truly fucked
Well and truly fucked

Open his mind!
To the fire inside
There's no reply but yeah, that shit takes time
I guess he must be fucked
He whispers inside his head
"It's still like I wanted
Maybe it's what I deserve"

Maybe I'll get there on my own
Maybe I won't
Maybe I won't

A good day for the pessimist
He's got a list of your mistakes
You worry that you might have missed
Your chance to ever feel awake
But he's here to tell you something
Something that you don't want to hear
A good day for the pessimist but the rest of us are
Well and truly fucked
Well and truly fucked

A good day for the pessimist
He's got a list of your mistakes
You worry that you might have missed
Your chance to ever feel awake
But he's here to tell you something
Something that you don't want to hear
A good day for the pessimist but the rest of us are
Well and truly
