For A Pessimist, I’m Pretty Optimistic (Live from Chicago)

[Verse 1]
Just talk yourself up and tear yourself down
You've–one wall, now find a way around
Well, what's the problem? You got a lot of nerve

[Pre-Chorus: Hayley Williams & Crowd]
So what did you think I would say?
You can't run away
You can't run away
So what did you think I would say?
You can't run away
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, Illinois!?
You threw it away

[Verse 2]
No, I'm not so naive 'cause my sorry eyes can see
The way you fight shy of almost everything
Well, if you give up you'll get what you deserve

[Pre-Chorus: Hayley Williams & Crowd]
So what did you think I would say?
You can't run away
You can't run away
So what did you think I would say?
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
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, now)

[Spoken]
Alright, Chicago!

[Chorus: Hayley Williams, Hayley Williams & Josh Farro]
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, no
I put my faith in you, so much faith
And then you just threw it away
