I'm Not A Cynic
Alec Benjamin, Alex Hope
I'm just bein' realistic, bein' honest with myself
I've tried bein' 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 bein' pessimistic, just bein' 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
I swear that I'm not a cynic, my glass just has no water in it
You only get that which 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 storm 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
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 emotions 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
I swear that I'm not a cynic, my glass just has no water in it today
I'm just bein' realistic, bein' honest with myself
Sto solo essendo realista, essendo onesto con me stesso
I've tried bein' optimistic but it doesn't seem to help
Ho provato ad essere ottimista ma non sembra aiutare
So I'll just have to admit this is the hand that I've been dealt
Quindi dovrò solo ammettere che questa è la mano che mi è stata data
I'm not bein' pessimistic, just bein' honest with myself
Non sto essendo pessimista, sto solo essendo onesto con me stesso
I'm not a cynic, oh, today's just not my day
Non sono un cinico, oh, oggi non è proprio il mio giorno
I've tried to spin it 'bout a thousand different ways
Ho provato a girarla in mille modi diversi
But from every angle, oh, the outlook is the same
Ma da ogni angolo, oh, la prospettiva è la stessa
I swear that I'm not a cynic, my glass just has no water in it today
Giuro che non sono un cinico, il mio bicchiere oggi semplicemente non ha acqua
I swear that I'm not a cynic, my glass just has no water in it
Giuro che non sono un cinico, il mio bicchiere oggi semplicemente non ha acqua
You only get that which you're given, it's not always up to you
Ricevi solo ciò che ti viene dato, non dipende sempre da te
Not every Sunday is a picnic 'cause the sky ain't always blue
Non ogni domenica è un picnic perché il cielo non è sempre blu
You can't just change the weather by changing your point of view
Non puoi semplicemente cambiare il tempo cambiando il tuo punto di vista
Some days you have to wait until the storm just passes through
Alcuni giorni devi aspettare che la tempesta passi
I'm not a cynic, oh, today's just not my day
Non sono un cinico, oh, oggi non è proprio il mio giorno
I've tried to spin it 'bout a thousand different ways
Ho provato a girarla in mille modi diversi
But from every angle, oh, the outlook is the same
Ma da ogni angolo, oh, la prospettiva è la stessa
I swear that I'm not a cynic, my glass just has no water in it today
Giuro che non sono un cinico, il mio bicchiere oggi semplicemente non ha acqua
So like a boat on the ocean, I'll rock with the waves
Quindi come una barca sull'oceano, mi dondolerò con le onde
God, I'm so sick of this notion that I have to fake
Dio, sono così stanco di questa idea che devo fingere
Fake my emotions and pretend I'm okay
Fingere le mie emozioni e fingere di stare bene
So like a boat on the ocean, I'll just rock with the waves
Quindi come una barca sull'oceano, mi dondolerò semplicemente con le onde
I'm not a cynic, oh, today's just not my day
Non sono un cinico, oh, oggi non è proprio il mio giorno
I've tried to spin it 'bout a thousand different ways
Ho provato a girarla in mille modi diversi
But from every angle, oh, the outlook is the same
Ma da ogni angolo, oh, la prospettiva è la stessa

Giuro che non sono un cinico, il mio bicchiere oggi semplicemente non ha acqua
I swear that I'm not a cynic, my glass just has no water in it today
Giuro che non sono un cinico, il mio bicchiere oggi semplicemente non ha acqua
I'm just bein' realistic, bein' honest with myself

Tentei dar uma volta nisso de mil maneiras diferentes
But from every angle, oh, the outlook is the same
Mas de todos os ângulos, oh, a perspectiva é a mesma
I swear that I'm not a cynic, my glass just has no water in it today
Juro que não sou um cínico, meu copo simplesmente não tem água hoje
I swear that I'm not a cynic, my glass just has no water in it
Juro que não sou um cínico, meu copo simplesmente não tem água
You only get that which you're given, it's not always up to you
Você só recebe o que lhe é dado, nem sempre depende de você
Not every Sunday is a picnic 'cause the sky ain't always blue
Nem todo domingo é um piquenique porque o céu nem sempre é azul
You can't just change the weather by changing your point of view
Você não pode simplesmente mudar o tempo mudando seu ponto de vista
Some days you have to wait until the storm just passes through
Alguns dias você tem que esperar até que a tempestade passe

[Vers 1]
Jeg er bare realistisk, ærlig mod mig selv
Jeg har prøvet at være optimistisk, men det ser ikke ud til at hjælpe
Så, jeg må bare indrømme, at dette er hånden, jeg har fået
Jeg er ikke pessimistisk, bare ærlig mod mig selv
[Omkvæd]
Jeg er ikke en kyniker, åh, i dag er bare ikke min dag
Jeg har prøvet at dreje den omkring tusind forskellige måder
Men fra hver vinkel, åh, udsigten er den samme
Jeg sværger, jeg ikke er en kyniker, mit glas har bare intet vand i det i dag
[Efter-Omkvæd]
Ååh
Jeg sværger, jeg ikke er en kyniker, mit glas har bare intet vand i det i dag
[Vers 2]
Du får kun, hvad du bliver givet, det er ikke altid op til dig
Hver søndag er ikke en picnic, for himlen er ikke altid blå
Du kan ikke bare ændre vejret ved at skifte dit synspunkt
Nogle dage skal du bare vente indtil stormen går væk
[Omkvæd]
Jeg er ikke en kyniker, åh, i dag er bare ikke min dag
Jeg har prøvet at dreje den omkring tusind forskellige måder
Men fra hver vinkel, åh, udsigten er den samme
Jeg sværger, jeg ikke er en kyniker, mit glas har bare intet vand i det i dag
[Efter-Omkvæd]
Ååh
[Kontraststykke]
Så ligesom en båd på havet, vil jeg gynge med bølgerne
Gud, jeg er så træt af forestilling, jeg skal efterligne
Forfalsker mine følelser og lader som om jeg er okay
Så ligesom en båd på havet, vil jeg gynge med bølgerne
[Omkvæd]
Jeg er ikke en kyniker, åh, i dag er bare ikke min dag
Jeg har prøvet at dreje den omkring tusind forskellige måder
Men fra hver vinkel, åh, udsigten er den samme
Jeg sværger, jeg ikke er en kyniker, mit glas har bare intet vand i det i dag
[Efter-Omkvæd]
Ååh
Jeg sværger, jeg ikke er en kyniker, mit glas har bare intet vand i det i dag
