Guitars strum to heartbeats In time to each tick tock Dying down into a stray sleep Will morning be graced by your presence? There is a flower clawing at a monster Scratches on the bathroom mirror With those pessimistic, optimistic words "Live each day like it's your last" Light poured out of lock picked veins Stealing life's treasures, robbing the bank Look how you have trashed the place Will morning be graced by your presence? A half awake moon lazily kisses you to an early grave Telling you goodnight, sweet dreams pessimist And don't forget the words we never should say "Live each day like it's your last for surely it is"

Goodnight Pessimist
Guitars strum to heartbeats In time to each tick tock Dying down into a stray sleep Will morning be graced by your presence? There is a flower clawing at a monster Scratches on the bathroom mirror With those pessimistic, optimistic words "Live each day like it's your last" Light poured out of lock picked veins Stealing life's treasures, robbing the bank Look how you have trashed the place Will morning be graced by your presence? A half awake moon lazily kisses you to an early grave Telling you goodnight, sweet dreams pessimist And don't forget the words we never should say "Live each day like it's your last for surely it is"
