The Optimsit

[Chorus] This band ain't big enough For the bad decisions of the both of us The dirty dishes are piling up To the point that no matter the angle I can't fill my glass So how am I supposed to know If I'm still an optimist anymore? Lately I've been feeling rough Is my glass still half full, there is no way to tell [Verse 1] I've been hiding awake in this space Since we played the show on Monday It was everything that I dreamt it could be: I stood on stage with such confidence Singing songs that I wrote in the very space Where I am sat right now feeling opposite Art shouldn't always be synonymous with performance Try writing somеthing beautiful with you as the sole audiеnce Look after your old body and be kind to your drained brain Sleep if you need to, eat well, and understand it's okay to do this [Verse 2] Introversion is not a sin, interspersed invincibility Understand that instability will not always define you Well although, it is fine to lean into the parts that make you 'you' Give yourself a little time to be small, too I'm at an eating biscuits for cheese Without the cheese level of low I'm at an eating biscuits for cheese Without the cheese level of low [Verse 3] I've been trying to read But my attention was shot back in my teens I wish it was through drugs And not staring at little screens I'd happily trade some brain cells for some stories Some fucking real life memories Good luck out int he world, none of us were prepared for it I rearranged this room to give the illusion of a study I always said that if this became my job Then I would make it Now I'm worried about the rent but I am lucky [Extended Chorus] This band ain't big enough For the bad decisions of the both of us The dirty dishes are piling up To the point that no matter the angle I can't fill my glass So how am I supposed to know If I'm still an optimist anymore? Lately I've been feeling rough Is my glass still half full, there is no way to tell (Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na) There is no way to tell (Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na) There is no way to tell (Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na) There is no way to tell
