Optimist Club

the river evaporates to fog which the sun will burn away
revealing the horizon which taunts me through my day.
you only get one chance, and success is so damn crass...
"you're so goddamn sarcastic."
"fuck that, we don't need to practice before the show..."
...and the radio and everything else- just out of grasp.
and success is so damn crass...
the band evaporates to fog
and the wind and the rent blow that away,
revealing what cruel ambition carries me through my day.
we only saw one chance and success is so damn crass...
...and i need you now.
