Stone Sour - The Pessimist lyrics

rate me

Half alive and stock reigning free

A hideous God of a man

You got what you want, what more do you need?

If I have to make my stand I will make you pay

I can show you the way, just stay out of my way

I will not become another pessimist

I will not become another reason to hide

Skin is a game, war is a prize of the flesh

I know what I want, but what do I need?

If I have to take this chance

I will take it today

I will not become another pessimist

I will not become another part of this

I know why, the consequence is by design

And I know why, we kill to keep our lives inside

And I know why, everything wrong just feels so right

And I know why, the way I live will never let me die

(Solo: Josh)

What do I have to do to make you see?

Your black of life goes grey

I don't know what I want, I don't know what I need

I have to save you too, that's the end of me

I will not become another pessimist

I will not become another part of this

I know why, the consequence is by design

And I know why, we kill to keep our lives inside

And I know why, everything wrong just feels so right

And I know why, the way I live will never let me die

Will never let me die

Oh!
