Lyrics

The Optimist

I?d make your bed if you needed to rest
I?d give you air if you needed to breathe
I?d pour my heart into a cup if you wanted me to
And now we?re through
I don?t care if you can?t sleep in that bed I made for you
I?ve given all I could give
I don?t care if you can?t breath with someone?s hand over your mouth
It?s all I could give
All your feelings were so pretend
I wonder when it came to an end
Maybe it was when I watched you sour
Or when I stopped putting up with your lies
You spat in my eyes
I?d make your bed if you needed to rest
I?d give you air if you needed to breathe
I?d pour my soul into a cup if you asked me to, if you wanted me to
And now we?re through
Because I?ve given you all I could give
Is it so wrong that I wish you were gone?
