[00:03.332]Salt in my eyes stinging my brain
[00:10.267]It's been forty odd days since we've been clean
[00:18.707]Crawl in the cave looking for light
[00:25.226]But the ceiling descends and still it's dark
[00:34.180]Hey there don't declare optimist it's clear you resist
[00:49.90]I try all the time to get it right and still it persists
[01:03.793]Touched that you think I'm a heartless old crank
[01:10.723]And there's things that I've done to convict me of that
[01:18.811]Try to look out eyes straight and fast
[01:25.914]But I've struggled of late my head in the past
[01:34.49]Hey there don't despair get in the cave
[01:48.890]We live day and night to find the right sort of light
[02:03.726]Bored of the truth I return to my youth
[02:09.928]Drinking breaker at night in the cold duchess light
[02:18.598]Out by the fence there's a shout that I'm dead
[02:24.814]Get me out of this place I'll take casuals another day
[02:33.253]All gates are locked there's no way I can walk
[02:39.533]And the paths that I took led me into the swamp
[02:53.676]Even this trusty accomplice gets rusty
[03:00.411]I'm not being cruel but your brain never ruled
[03:08.440]I've seen the trauma of lives that were squandered
[03:15.397]But I'm not to blame for showing restraint
[03:23.290]Hey there don't declare optimist
[03:38.107]I try every night to get it right
[03:48.913]And still
[06:00.19]No path of truth led me where I could walk
[06:05.585]But the lies that I made led me out of the swamp
