The Optimist Lyrics

Gold quivers upon the road
And I am going to find it
On a mission, I'm not a joke
I am going to find it

And they laugh
They laugh behind my back

I reflect on the meaning of time
Later it will come catch me
Attend our lessons and recognized
Oh, man, I'm trying to learn it
But I run
I run here alone

Why can't I just be like them?
Why can't this be like them tonight?

People speak [?]
As fast escape and I'm feeling as a fool

People glare and my hair looks fine Apparently I got it
Measure and man taught divined
But here I'm occupied, crawling

In the dust
The dust got in my heart

But gold quivers upon the road
And I am going to find it
But there was no mission, I am now a joke
And still I'm trying to find it

And they laugh
They laugh behind my back

Why can't I just be like them?
Why can't this be like them tonight?
But hope's a pearl and I am meaning well
To make the later the beginning of my life
