The Chosen Pessimist
In Flames · A Sense Of Purpose [2008]
Tell me which side I'm on
Approaching constant failure
Tell me which side I'm on
Who's friend or foe?
Approaching constant failure
Between love and hate
Which path to follow?
How can I keep balance in this race?
Come faith, I'm dying.....slowly
In many ways I'm the burden
That divides us from the light
In many ways you're the halo
That keeps my spirit alive
Temptation
Play the good or evil part
With me, you evoke the dark
Erase my free will watch me heal
Tell me which side I'm on
Approaching constant failure
Between love and hate
Which path to follow?
How can I keep balance in this race?
Come faith, I'm dying
Amused by the trials and tribulations
If I survive I fly from here
But as the chosen pessimist
I carve my name in stone
I carve my name in stone
Amused by the trials and tribulations
If I survive I fly...
How can I keep balance in this race?
Come faith, I'm dying
Approaching constant failure
Tell me which side I'm on
Who's friend or foe?
Approaching constant failure
Between love and hate
Which path to follow?
How can I keep balance in this race?
Come faith, I'm dying.....slowly
In many ways I'm the burden
That divides us from the light
In many ways you're the halo
That keeps my spirit alive

Erase my free will watch me heal
Tell me which side I'm on
Approaching constant failure
Between love and hate

Come faith, I'm dying
