Ever The Optimist Lyrics by This Glass Embrace

A Picture So Clear EP

2007

[Verse 1]
It's not just this
It's everything
It's the thousand nights I've wasted
When I should have been asleep
And all these songs I can't not sing
As if it really makes a difference
When no one is ever listening
[Chorus]
If just once I could feel like this mattered
I think that would be enough
But tonight, I'm the furthest thing from certain
Tonight, I just feel like giving up
[Verse 2]
It's not just this
It's everything
It's all these words I've scrawled on napkins
That no one else will ever read
It's too late to call; everyone's asleep
So let this song be my catharsis
Until the morning brings relief
[Chorus]
If just once I could feel like this mattered
I think that would be enough
But tonight, I'm the furthest thing from certain
Tonight, I just feel like giving up
[Bridge]
Just forget me, I'm a waste of
Your attention, of your time
Just forget me, I'm a waste of
Your attention, of your time
Just forget me, I'm a waste of
Your attention, of your time
[Chorus]
Just forget me
If just once I could feel like this mattered
I'm a waste of
I think that would be enough
Your attention
But tonight
Just forget me
I'm the furthest thing from certain
I'm a waste of
Tonight, I just feel like giving up
Your attention
Tonight, I just feel like giving up
Tonight, I just feel like giving up
