bennie hayfield - optimist (demo) lyrics

[verse 1]
wake up each morning, no doubt to be seen
i’m an optimist now, i’m living the dream
i say to myself “hey, you’re gonna be fine”
“you’ll do all you can with the rest of your time”
jump out of bed with no worry or strife
i’m living each day in this average life
each day that goes by, i’ll do what i can
creating my future, i’m making my plan
so why, when i push through each day and each night
does this whole way of living just feel like a lie?
am i waving h+llo or awaiting goodbye?
why does it just feel like i’m living to die?

[chorus]
i wait every night and each day
i keep myself sane by lying through the pain
if you lie to yourself about what you can be
maybe you’ll be an optimist as well just like me

[verse 2]
’cause it isn’t a lie if you convince yourself so
you’re gonna get all your dreams before you have to go
each problem you face, you just have to forgive
’cause you’re clutching at every reason to live
the doubts in your mind? you just throw them away
everything’s in your reach, it is there to stay
forget all bad outcomes and hold on to hope
tell yourself you’ll succeed
though you know that you won’t
[chorus]
i wait every night and each day
i keep myself sane by lying through the pain
if you lie to yourself about what you can be
maybe you’ll be an optimist as well just like me
and i wait every night and each day
i keep myself sane by lying through the pain
if you lie to yourself about what you can be
maybe you’ll be an optimist as well just like me

[outro]
if you let yourself think what’s not possible is true
maybe you’ll be an optimist a bit like me too
