Against The World

I feel this world has too much blue.
From top to bottom, we have few bright ones.
From the ocean and the sky,
You all wonder why there is no savior.
Moaning and groaning,
All through the day.
Just because something hasn't gone your way.
My pessimism helps me along,
It's helped me to become strong.
I do not need blue anymore.
Blue is your friend now,
I'll take more.

You cannot stop me, no matter how hard you try.
Sadness in my life is a lie.
So beat me too the ground,
Drowned out all the sound,
But you cannot take my happiness.
It's built within my pessimism,
And your never ending optimism has brought you madness and sadness.
See the dark once in awhile,
Then walk in the park with a child.
Children know a way of life we have forgotten.

We have forgotten how to live.
You have forgotten life's gift.
The gift of love,
Give it a chance.

But no, you need to see the happy hurt,
Just because you never learned.
Life isn't all smiles.
I've known that for long...
Optimism is very wrong.
Optimism is like a song with only high notes.
Pessimism can have both.

So try to take me down,
I dare you.
Does this dark clothing scare you?
I put my dark on the outside,
Keep the light inside,
Because if it's already out,
I cannot give.

So the world against me, just keeps frowning.

I will NOT be drowning in sadness.

I rest on top, I will not drop.

I will NOT give into the madness.

I
Will
NOT
Stop
