Hampus & Ragna - The Pessimist

The world keeps on turning
But I am standing still
I don't understand it
I guess I never will
I keep on waiting for guidance from above
But it appears I've been forgotten somehow
People say all you truly need
Is a tender hand to hold
And once you find it
You can happily grow old
But was there ever such a thing
As sweet and simple love
Then surely they would have taxed it by now
I am a palimpsest, written and erased
The lonely writer of a thousand love songs
Call me a pessimist, but I have never once been proven wrong
I'm a chameleon, hiding in plain sight
I have been chasing after clouds for so long
I have to heal again
Though I have never once been proven wrong
I'm an abandoned ship, drifting in the storm
I need direction but the wind is too strong
You say I've lost my grip
But I have never once been proven wrong
