I Learned To Be A Pessimist Poem by Brandon Nothing

I Learned To Be A Pessimist



Things try to stay in line
All else fails to cure this pine
And these are the words that tear me apart
So I can’t wake up another day
Moving in line the stumble of clouds
To the shore, we walk the line
Does feeling this way make me any less of a man?
So lying is the only way that I can…
Vibrant and scared all distortion
I could see inside the lines, all else grew to be blind
I could see it all so clear, and then all of a sudden I hear!
These are the words that tear me apart
So now I can learn to try never again
All about you, everything, it seems to drag; it seems it’s always here
Right next to me holding so close
How I learned to hate to love, all the times I looked above
Now I can’t tell a thing they seem to keep dry
Because these are the words that tore me apart
Sad in will, grim is fate
Is this the way it was meant to be?
I can’t forget what happened so easily
The way you made me feel some pride
Then you broke me down inside!
Trivial games, no more am I late
Life before you wasn’t so good
Life with you, is all that it should
Life without feels so scarred
Dead alone without care, now it’s all up in the air
Am I happy now? I am fixed!
This is the heartbreak that keeps me together
This is the time for me to remember
I always get what I want, not today…
Today I finally lose control and then it all fires away…
Because these are the words that tore me apart
I am more of a man, without you here and then
But still you come back again, I learned to live again
But you come back again, and it all rips me apart!
