Emma Pollock - The Optimist songtekst

Je score:



Given the light, Give it some truth

Given the maybe, Give it some proof

This body is cleaner, I'm one to behold

My truth was uncovered, Untainted and told

I loathed the people I considered old



Oh, the optimist



Teach me to follow, Teach me to lead

Teach me to stand up, And how to succeed

As long as I'm upright, I'll try to prolong

The notion that future events must go on

No matter the turn out is right or is wrong



They trusted you

And all the things you often made them do, and now

Everyone smilin'

Telling me I've got to trust you to

Do no wrong

'Cause if you do, You just won't live as long, and now

Everyone's cryin'

Someone's telling them to just stop trying



Given some truth, Call it a lie

Given some action, Ask yourself why

This body is slow, And it's seen its best days

My truth is uncovered, My negative ways

I'm one of the people I struggle to praise



Oh, the pessimist



Teach me to follow, But never to lead

Teach me to stay down, And never succeed

When everyone's watching, It's hard to admit

The movement of shadows, That lead me to quit

I grapple with time, But I can't make it fit



They trusted you

With all the things you often made them do, and now

Everyone smillin'

Telling me I've got to trust you to

Do no wrong

'Cause if you do, You just won't live as long, and now

Everyone's smilin'

Someone's telling them to just stop trying
