Ever The Optimist Lyrics

I spent my whole life in this town
Just trying to get out
I've always dreamed of leaving then
I got sick of waiting so I
packed my bags and I made my way to those big bright city lights

I havent been here for to long but its just not good enough
theres something better out there
i know i have to find it
so i will run again leaving everything far behind
i hope this works out in the end

I found myself looking on ignoring whats around me with all my friends surrounding
so concerned with all that i could be not hearing when they told me
got to listen to your heartbeat when theres nothing left to find

mile after mile i put my life into this ride im getting further but im still not satisfied cause every time i step in you had a story to tell about something i missed it makes it hard to leave again

I found myself looking on ignoring whats around me with all my friends surrounding
so concerned with all that i could be not hearing when they told me
got to listen to your heartbeat when theres nothing left to find

i need to stop and think its getting hard to breath cant even fall asleep anymore
i need a moments peace so i can be at ease trying to enjoying anything i havent spent a second taking joy in what i have


I found myself looking on ignoring whats around me with all my friends surrounding
so concerned with all that i could be not hearing what they said you got to listen to your heart when theres nothing left


I found myself looking on ignoring whats around me with all my friends surrounding
so concerned with all that i could be not hearing when they told me
got to listen to your heartbeat when theres nothing left to when theres nothing left to when thers nothing left to find
