My Sweet Pessimist Lyrics
Your heart's been used
As target practice
But I'm not the one
Holding onto that gun
(?)
With tears and silence
And save yourself
From the scars that wrap
Around your wrist
And keep you numb
I can't rewrite
The soundtrack to your dreams
But I'll sing you to sleep
There's irony to this story
When I can let go
Of someone who just
Wouldn't hold on
And we've become
Just another young tragedy
And save yourself
From the scars that wrap
Around your wrist
And keep you numb
I can't rewrite
The soundtrack to your dreams
But I'll sing you to sleep
Do you find safety in numbers
And wonder what's in between
Seventeen and me?
Do you cry aloud
(Save yourself
From the scars that wrap
Around your wrist
And keep you numb)
My sweet pessimist
I can't rewrite
The soundtrack to your dreams
No, I can't rewrite
The soundtrack to your dreams
But I'll sing you to sleep
As target practice
But I'm not the one
Holding onto that gun
(?)
With tears and silence
From the scars that wrap
Around your wrist
And keep you numb
The soundtrack to your dreams
But I'll sing you to sleep
When I can let go
Of someone who just
Wouldn't hold on
And we've become
Just another young tragedy
From the scars that wrap
Around your wrist
And keep you numb
The soundtrack to your dreams
But I'll sing you to sleep
And wonder what's in between
Seventeen and me?
Do you cry aloud
From the scars that wrap
Around your wrist
And keep you numb)
The soundtrack to your dreams
The soundtrack to your dreams
But I'll sing you to sleep

Your heart's been used As target practice But I'm not the one Holding onto that gun or wounds you've sutured tight With tears and silence
