I'm Not A Cynic

[00:00.71] I'm just being realistic, being honest with myself

[00:03.97] I've tried being optimistic but it doesn't seem to help

[00:07.23] So I'll just have to admit this is the hand that I've been dealt

[00:11.47] I'm not being pessimistic, just being honest with myself

[00:15.20] I'm not a cynic, oh, today's just not my day

[00:18.74] I've tried to spin it 'bout a thousand different ways

[00:22.48] But from every angle, oh, the outlook is the same

[00:25.95] I swear that I'm not a cynic, my glass just has no water in it today

[00:40.71] I swear that I'm not a cynic, my glass just has no water in it

[00:44.72] And when you get that which you're given it's not always up to you

[00:47.71] Not every Sunday is a picnic 'cause the sky ain't always blue

[00:51.71] You can't just change the weather 'bout changing your point of view

[00:55.22] Some days you have to wait until the storm just passes through

[00:59.71] I'm not a cynic, oh, today's just not my day

[01:02.98] I've tried to spin it 'bout a thousand different ways

[01:06.73] But from every angle, oh, the outlook is the same

[01:10.21] I swear that I'm not a cynic, my glass just has no water in it today

[01:27.72] So like a boat on the ocean, I'll rock with the waves

[01:31.21] God, I'm so sick of this notion that I have to fake

[01:34.96] Fake my emotions and pretend I'm okay

[01:38.72] So like a boat on the ocean, I'll just rock with the waves

[01:43.21] I'm not a cynic, oh, today's just not my day

[01:47.73] I've tried to spin it 'bout a thousand different ways

[01:50.70] But from every angle, oh, the outlook is the same

[01:54.44] I swear that I'm not a cynic, my glass just has no water in it today

[02:09.49] I swear that I'm not a cynic, my glass just has no water in it
