optimism

I had a dream last night that my plant died It couldn't have been much sadder if I tried Got out of bed the next morning to check if it was still alive It's a miracle for something of mine I guess optimism's just a language that I'm not fluent in And I would try to pretend to be happy, but I might ruin it For everybody else So I'll just be myself It's all in my head All in my head All in my head All in my head All in my head All in my head All in my head I read a book by an American pastor He said "count your blessings" but I forgot to after I guess one plus one doesn't always equal two Forgot to add in what was hiding out of view All in my It's all in my All in my I guess optimism's just a language that I'm not fluent in And I would try to pretend to be happy, but I might ruin it For everybody else So I'll just be myself And it's all the same no matter what I do Can't seem to change my point of view It's not like I hate everyone too I just can't be as happy as you All the time And don't try and change my mind Optimism's just a language that I'm not fluent in So I won't pretend to be happy For anybody else Or myself
