The Bright Side Lyrics

We've always tried to find the brighter side
To living out our lives the way that we decided
The glass was always halfway full
To us, the glass was always halfway full
But things get difficult from time to time
And the Devil has his way within our idle minds
Even so, we really can't complain
Because we're doing things in our own way
And all our ritualistic ways
Help us tolerate this place

But now the consequence is at our hind
We're old enough to notice but too young to mind
We can't afford to to pay it heed
Because this is where we want to be
We keep on clinging to the brighter side
Watching one another start a slow decline
The bird is feeling slightly bruised
And the horse is gearing up the goose
The rest of us line up abuse
It's all we ever want to do any more

The times have changed but we remain fixated
To the same old vices and situations And all we do is work to afford the cost of living
So that we can do the things that we want to do
The bright side looks a little dim right now

And now we crowd around a bar room table
Mixing up our facts with all our half-ass fables
We talk about the great old past
And how it happened way too fast
We don't care about how full the glass
We only care about who's going to buy the next round

The times have changed but we remain fixated
To the same old vices and sitations
And all we do is work to afford the cost of living
So that we can do the things that we want to do
Our friends escape but we remain fixated
To the same old lifestyle and entertainment
And all we do is work to afford the cost of living
So we can play our music for who God knows who
The bright side looks a little dim right now
