optimistic pessimist - john michael howell lyrics
[verse 1]
i’m an optimistic pessimist
i’ll root for the worst even when my life is great
’cause maybe i won’t get hurt if i’m lookin’ for the bad
before it gets to me, mm
[chorus]
’cause maybe i’m scared to say
that my life’s going great
’cause when i turn my back
i feel it might run away, run away, run away
oh, oh, oh, why am i this way?
why am i this way?
so i worry ’bout tomorrow
but forget to live today, live today, live today
[verse 2]
i guess i try to divvy up the pain
so i don’t feel the blow of disappointment every time it rains
so i just jump the pole before the things i loved turned into smoke
but that’s all in my head
and i’m startin’ to think
[chorus]
that maybe i’m scared to say
that my life’s going great
’cause when i turn my back
i feel it might run away, run away, run away
oh, oh, oh, why am i this way?
why am i this way?
so i worry ’bout tomorrow
but forget to live today, live today, live today
maybe i’m scared to say
that my life’s going great
’cause when i turn my back
i feel it might run away, run away, run away
oh, oh, oh, why am i this way?
why am i this way?
so i worry ’bout tomorrow
but forget to live today, live today, live today
[outro]
but i won’t be afraid
i won’t be afraid anymore
