Toxic Positivity

When you're standing in a crowded room And no one wants to talk to you It's not them, it's you Fill your days to pass the time And you say you're doing fine Those rose colored glasses you hide behind Are lies Cause we all have a darkness inside Thinking otherwise makes you blind You take yourself so seriously But you're deceived by your own self esteem You've always had a proclivity For a toxic positivity Such toxic positivity We all want happiness to fill our days Stop fooling yourself and pretending everything's okay A wounded bird in a broken cage Who's instinct is to fly away You can change, you can change, you can change, you can change Oh, at least that's what they say Our social fabric is all in tatters Everything's terrible and nothing matters You're optimistic about what's in store It's regressive and we're getting bored
