im not a cynic

[00:00.14] Alec Benjamin - I'm Not A Cynic - Karaoke Instrumental Acoustic)

[00:05.27] I'm just being realistic, being honest with myself

[00:09.52] I've tried being optimistic, but it doesn't seem to help

[00:13.52] So, I'll just have to admit this is the hand that I've been dealt

[00:17.02] I'm not being pessimistic, just being honest with myself

[00:21.52] I'm not a cynic, oh, today's just not my day

[00:25.27] I've tried to spin it 'bout a thousand different ways

[00:28.02] But from every angle, oh, the outlook is the same

[00:31.77] I swear that I'm not a cynic, my glass just has no water in it today

[00:36.27] Ooh

[00:46.41] I swear that I'm not a cynic, my glass just has no water in it

[00:50.66] You only get that what you're given, it's not always up to you

[00:53.66] Not every Sunday is a picnic 'cause the sky ain't always blue

[00:57.91] You can't just change the weather by changing your point of view

[01:01.41] Some days you have to wait until the storms just passes through

[01:05.91] I'm not a cynic, oh, today's just not my day

[01:09.41] I've tried to spin it 'bout a thousand different ways

[01:12.66] But from every angle, oh, the outlook is the same

[01:15.91] I swear that I'm not a cynic, my glass just has no water in it today

[01:20.41] Ooh

[01:33.41] So like a boat on the ocean, I'll rock with the waves

[01:37.41] God, I'm so sick of this notion that I have to fake

[01:40.91] Fake my emotion and pretend I'm okay

[01:44.66] So like a boat on the ocean, I'll just rock with the waves

[01:49.16] I'm not a cynic, oh, today's just not my day

[01:53.91] I've tried to spin it 'bout a thousand different ways

[01:56.91] But from every angle, oh, the outlook is the same

[02:00.41] I swear that I'm not a cynic, my glass just has no water in it today

[02:04.91] Ooh

[02:15.16] I swear that I'm not a cynic, my glass just has no water in it today
