The Great Optimist Lyrics

Y'know you did everything right tried to be dependable every time, so it's hard to understand why you're the one who should find it harder to sleep at night

and get needled by the thought that you may have been mistaken all along, while you wait - wait and wait for a call but the phone, it doesn't cry from its cradle at all at all at all

it would be something if if somehow after this you could still call yourself - the great optimist

so you find somewhere to be where you don't feel you're caught in between and where you won't get crushed by the counterweight that's gonna buckle under the strain of all your disbelief
and light comes through the leaves like bandits shooting at your feet and indeed, there's honour among thieves and the good guys always win - you say, eventually eventually eventually

it would be something if if somehow after this you could still call yourself -

it would be something if if somehow after this you could still call yourself - the great optimist
