Cynical

I'm a self-proclaimed idealist
With a penchant for mistrust
A fighter and a human being
Sometimes it's kind of difficult
To hold on to your faith
As you navigate
Through a world like this
As you make your way
Through this life we live

I believe in love but
I can't help how cynical I get
When I've been let down
I can't forgive or forget

So time and time and time again
I try acting in good faith
But I have no guarantees
And so I hesitate
The world has left you bitter
'Cause someone has done you wrong
You're a victim but
Baby join the club
After all, isn't everyone?

I believe in love but
I can't help how cynical I get
When I've been let down
I can't forgive or forget

And it gets so damn exhausting
Thinking everybody's
Only in it for themselves

I believe in love but
I can't help how cynical I get
When I've been let down
I can't forgive or forget
I believe in love but
I can't help how cynical I get
When I've been let down
I can't forgive or forget
