The Optimist

I can tell that you don't like it when there's trouble
I always see you turn your head
You try to see the good so hard it's almost stubborn
So I'll never buy what they have said
We used to do everything but you never thought less of us
Such a cliched character trait
Always looking on the bright side of everything
Always such an Optimist

Close your eyes and hope everything's okay
You just close your eyes and hope for the best

This whole town knew you and this whole town loved you
A smile when we would see your face
This whole town has been rocked by the news of you
Could we have missed something?
We could have done anything but you'd never think less of us
We were so sure of this
You always looked on the bright side of everything
Ever The Optimist

Close your eyes and hope everything's okay
You just close your eyes and hope for the best

And there's nothing you can say that'll make us change
Our minds already made
There's not a chance, you see, not a chance
I don't care which way your investigation sways
My mind's already made
There's not a chance, you hear, not a chance
