The Pessimist Lyrics


turn light into dark

faith into hate

and wounds into scars

build up these walls

ignore the warning cries

construct schemes of lies

too many tribulations

these overwhelming tasks

and all their expectations

bring you to your knees

bring you to your knees

welcome the pessimist

I'm strong - expecting anything from you

skepticism and disdain

I know for sure, for me they'll always reign

if you light a candle, I will blow it out

if you construct a building, I will burn it down

call me a nihilist, the one who slaps your wrist

please shut the fuck up and listen to me

the glass is half empty

turn truth into lie - right into wrong - pleasure into pain

there's no way out - how can I leave my slough?

god please end this now

I'm dying, no more faith left

in what should I believe?

no hope, no strength, no will left to resist

may I introduce - welcome the pessimist

I'm strong - expecting anything from you

skepticism and disdain

I know for sure, for me they'll always reign

if you light a candle, I will blow it out

if you construct a building, I will burn it down

call me a nihilist, the one who slaps your wrist

please shut the fuck up and listen to me

the glass is half empty

could this be really my fault? NO!

lord won't take it amiss if I'm a pessimist

cause in a cold-hearted world, based on a lore of lies

hope is the first that dies

built up protection wall!

and pray it will never fall!

- FALL!
