I feel drawn to revolving doors

It makes it easy to get back to where I was before

I'm an optimist when I forget to be a realist at times like these

With a little time we'll find out why…

What we already knew



Show me the brighter side

The one where we both make it out alright

I feel like it'll all work out this time

If we lean towards the brighter side



I bought us two round trip tickets to nowhere

So if it's lonely it's easy enough to get back here

I'm a pessimist when I forget to be an optimist at times like these

It takes time but we'll find out why we never worked out before



Show me the brighter side

The one where we both make it out alright

I feel like it'll all work out this time

If we lean towards the brighter side



Somewhere there is somebody waiting to break my heart again

And it's been so long I feel like I'm ready to let them

And who knows maybe I'll surprise myself

And who knows maybe you'll be surprised by me



I'm a realist when I forget to be anything else

So let's invent a new lie we can build upon for ourselves



And then show me the brighter side…
