I'm Not A Cynic (Lyrics)
[Verse 1]
I'm just being realistic, being honest with myself
I've tried being optimistic, but it doesn't seem to help
So, I'll just have to admit this is the hand that I've been dealt
I'm not being pessimistic, just being honest with myself

[Chorus]
I'm not a cynic, oh, today's just not my day
I've tried to spin it 'bout a thousand different ways
But from every angle, oh, the outlook is the same
I swear that I'm not a cynic, my glass just has no water in it today

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh
I swear that I'm not a cynic, my glass just has no water in it

[Verse 2]
You only get that what you're given, it's not always up to you
Not every Sunday is a picnic 'cause the sky ain't always blue
You can't just change the weather by changing your point of view
Some days you have to wait until the storms just passes through

[Chorus]
I'm not a cynic, oh, today's just not my day
I've tried to spin it 'bout a thousand different ways
But from every angle, oh, the outlook is the same
I swear that I'm not a cynic, my glass just has no water in it today
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh

[Bridge]
So like a boat on the ocean, I'll rock with the waves
God, I'm so sick of this notion that I have to fake
Fake my emotion and pretend I'm okay
So like a boat on the ocean, I'll just rock with the waves

[Chorus]
I'm not a cynic, oh, today's just not my day
I've tried to spin it 'bout a thousand different ways
But from every angle, oh, the outlook is the same
I swear that I'm not a cynic, my glass just has no water in it today

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh
I swear that I'm not a cynic, my glass just has no water in it today

This was posted right after leaving a seriously stressful situation that has been going on for 3 days now... It was an eye opener. It's ok that I'm not ok for a day

That song is really sad, but it's still just a little hopeful. Maybe a day the glass will become full, Alec!

1:11 " i swear that i'm not a cynic, my glass just has no water in it today." we empty our glasses to refill, but sometimes leaving it empty is better than refilling it every time it's empty, because then you'll just be too tired to keep on doing the same thing over and over again. ooh got poetic just now-(also i know it's kinda not what the song is trying to say i guess, i just thought of that when i heard the phrase)

Your voice is captivating with or without music. You can cure broken hearts with your soulful voice.  That's why I love Alec benzamin and melanie Martinez.
