Loving, Self-Loathing

The optimist that died in me
Awoke to the pale blue in your eyes
To show me there's a world I gave up long before
I married to the bottle, hit the road and chose to go it alone

This world can lose all meaning, burn and break your spirit
Something about you says it's not too late for me
If we could learn to fight our demons, yeah and I've got regrets but still
There's something about you that says it's not too late for me

So show me, give me half a chance to be for you
The person that I buried deep inside
For once I'd rather live than die and sympathize
With anyone who doesn't find the kind of second chance I did

This world can lose all meaning, burn and break your spirit
Something about you says it's not too late for me
If we could learn to fight our demons, yeah and I've got regrets but still
There's something about you that says it's not too late for me

Too late for me to come clean
