I'm Not A Cynic

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 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 Ooh I swear that I'm not a cynic my glass just has no water in it 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 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 Ooh 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 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 Ooh I swear that I'm not a cynic my glass just has no water in it today
