for a pessimist, i'm pretty optimistic

i never wanted to say this
you never wanted to say
i've put much faith in, so much faith
but you just threw it away

i'm not so naive, my sorry eyes can see
the way you fight shy of almost everything
well, if you give up, you'll get what you deserve

WELL, WHY DONT YOU BE A MAN ABOUT IT
FIGHT WITH YOUR BARE HANDS ABOUT IT NOW
