ATREYU lyrics : "A Song For The Optimists"

Blow the last candle out. Let the wax harden
I wish I could stop crying. I wish someone still loved me
Just breathe and focus. How can I when the air is so cold and

empty
That my lungs froze right in my chest
I'll be honest the silver linings are getting harder and harder

to manufacture
And the smiles are so difficult to fake
What do I have to do, or who do I have to kill, to get what I

want. What I need
Happiness is an emotion I was born to this world without.
Nothing pleases me. I cannot be satiated

through this toil I will breed my own distress and destroy my
best hopes.
$#&@ up the only things I love.

I WATCHED MY DREAMS DIE.
I watched my aspirations crash to the ground on the backs of the
angels that I've slain.

But I meant so well, I tried too hard, gave every ounce of my
soul, to what end.
Desolation, desire, exhale, pass away.
