About the Song
This song captures where I am at right now completely. It is the final vocal performance before having to seek specialty treatment for my neck pain. The performance was excruciating and it comes through in spots. It’s perfect.
I’m getting better slowly, but I have a long road back. My wounds are self inflicted by not dealing with trauma and it has manifested itself physically.
Jonathan Hadley and Abrasive Monologues present. Optimistic.
What are people saying
Lyrics
I spend my evenings
Sipping on the antidote
For the poison
The world is shoving down our throat
Everybody’s so woke
Laying on their pillow
They don’t see the ropes
Pulling tight around their throat
It’s a brand new day
I hope these clouds will clear away
But I’m not optimistic
I had a beautiful through float
Through my mind
And I almost missed it
Guess I’m not programmed Optimistic
I spend my evenings
Sipping on the antidote
For the poison that’s found it’s
Way between my code
The cure for this disease is a little grease
Then these old metal bones can find release
It’s a brand new day
I hope my systems check okay
But I’m not Optimistic
I had a beautiful through float
Through my mind
And I almost missed it
I’m just not programmed Optimistic
I might be broken
It might be how I’m designed
Happiness was never defined
It might be how I’m designed
I’m not Optimistic
