about

You see these two types of people on social networking sites every day: the bitter pessimist who expects the world to be horrible from the moment they wake up, always finding a downside even to the good things that happen, and the eternal optimist that spends most of the day posting up motivational sayings and convincing themselves they’re going to have a fantastic day no matter what. Both groups of people are invariably disappointed when life just simply goes on as normal. What you see in life is really just a point of view and up to you as to what you get out of it.

lyrics

Today the world can go to hell you say
An angry life for angry times
And all around conspiracies
When life is out to kick you down
No chance, just dance – a puppet on a string

And you see your world through cold jaded eyes
All the beauty and wonderment is gone
There can be no joy – all darkness without light
At the day’s end you know there’s something wrong

CHORUS 1:
The path you take is up to you
Can’t you see your life is waiting
Light and dark – a point of view
Understand this plan is at your command
Your fate in your hands or be damned

Today is gonna be a perfect day
A smile and goodwill all around
Ignoring plain reality
Won’t let the bastards bring you down

You feel, unreal – gloss-over everything
And you see your world through rose shaded eyes
All the beauty and wonderment adorn
There will be all joy – no darkness only light
At the day’s end you know there’s something wrong

CHORUS 2:
The path you take is up to you
Can’t you see your life is waiting
Light and dark – a point of view
Understand this plan is all in your hands
The life you make is up to you
And you’ll see a new world is waiting
And good or bad – a point of view
Understand this plan is at your command
Your fate in your hands or be damned

SOLO: LT / MARK / LT

Today is just another normal day
Where good and bad can come to anyone
Dumb luck and no conspiracies
No false pretense to guide my way
That’s life, that’s right – I know it’s up to me

And I see my world through unclouded eyes
All the cruelty and wonderment unbound
And the key is balance, no darkness without light
At the day’s end I’ve known it all along

REPEAT CHORUS 2
