Succinct, the Optimist

from The Grand Spontanean by Telethon

/

lyrics

Concentrate the whole time
A Facetime call won’t do the justice it deserves and
I know it bothers you when beating around the bush I
Miss the point you tried to make and it’s a white lie
To say it didn’t take

I know, I know, there must be some between, yeah
Someone to reach and pull the darkness out of me
A bit astounded by own passivity
So I am still in wait for somewhere to hide away

The scratching at the soul is a tough one to describe
Blind to a stranger. What do they think they’ll find but
Tea leaves and bottles
Steel wool to keep the mice from chewing up the model
Parthenon of modern life

I know, I know, there must be some between, yeah
Some tires to screech and scare the bullshit out of me
You’re in denial of your own mortality and that right about sums it up
Succinct, the optimist

I know, I know, there must be some between, yeah
Someone to listen, shout solutions out at me
Intimidated by the possibility that I could solve it all
With TLC and CBT
