Paramore
For A Pessimist, I’m Pretty Optimistic (Live from London)
[Intro]
Here's our opening track to RIOT! right here
Enjoy it
Here we go
[Verse 1]
Just talk yourself up and tear yourself down
You've hit your one wall, now find a way around
Well, what's the problem? You've got a lot of nerve
[Pre-Chorus]
So what did you think I would say?
No, you can't run away
No, you can't run away
So what did you think I would say?
No, you can't run away
No, you can't run away
You wouldn't
[Chorus: Hayley Williams, Hayley Williams & Josh Farro]
I never wanted to say this
You never wanted to stay
I put my faith in you, so much faith
And then you just threw it away
How's that feel, London!?
You threw it away
[Verse 2]
I'm not so naive 'cause my sorry eyes can see
The way you fight shy of almost everything
Well, if you give up then you'll get what you deserve
[Pre-Chorus: Hayley Williams & Crowd]
So what did you think I would say?
No, you can't run away
No, you can't run away
So what did you think I would say?
No, you can't run away
No, you can't run away
You wouldn't
[Chorus: Hayley Williams, Hayley Williams & Josh Farro]
I nеver wanted to say this
You nevеr wanted to stay
I put my faith in you, so much faith
And then you just threw it away
Well, you threw it away
[Bridge]
No, you were finished long before
We had even seen the start
Why don't you stand up?
Be a man about it?
Fight with your bare hands about it now?
[Chorus: Hayley Williams, Hayley Williams & Josh Farro]
And I never wanted to say this
You never wanted to stay, well, did you?
I put my faith in you, so much faith
And then you just threw it away
I never wanted to say this
You never wanted to stay
Oh, London!
And I put my faith in you, so much faith
And then you just threw it away
