Scared to Be Optimistic Songtext
von Will Williams

Let′s go!

I feel so high like I'm coming undone
Still got the reigns on me but I′m on the verge of breaking out
Of my own self-doubt
I'm kinda scared, why am I lowering my guard
When I know I'll most likely be left scarred
From what′s ahead?
It only ends in shreds

So wake me up, I must be dreaming
′Cos it's too early to have this feeling

I′m kinda scared to be optimistic
Last time I was, my life went ballistic
I'm terrified to let go
And let my feelings show
′Cos if I do then I'll be chucking logic


She gives me butterflies, but it′s only been 2 weeks
What if she reaches inside and gives my heart a squeeze
And bleeds it out
Filling me with more self-doubt?
Because it's happened before
I see it more and more
All around me in other people
Who can't see what′s ahead
For them, it ends in shreds

You know sometimes I wish I wasn′t autistic
'Cos maybe then I′d be more realistic

I'm kinda scared to be optimistic
Last time I was, my life went ballistic
I′m terrified to let go
And let my feelings show
'Cos if I do then I′ll be chucking logic
Is it normal to be pessimistic?
To wish that life was just simplistic?
'Cos then I wouldn't let go
And get my feelings blown up
By a wish that isn′t futuristic


But fuck it, I′ve gotta let go
If I can't move on then I′ll never emote
And if it ends in shreds
I'll be alright in the end
I′m through with self-doubt
Because she's fucking amazing
And devastating
All at the same time
And while I may lose her
Or change my opinion
Right now, this is how I feel

I′m never scared to be optimistic
And I don't care if my life goes ballistic
I'm ready to let go
And let my feelings roll
And how I′ve missed just chucking logic
It′s unhealthy to be pessimistic
Life's at its best when it′s not simplistic
I'm ready to let go
And let my feelings roll
With whatever becomes futuristic

I′m ready to let go
And let my feelings roll
With whatever becomes futuristic
