Positive

lyrics

When the worst comes
When the world turns upside down
When the wolves run
And there’s nobody but other shaking deer for miles around

Bad times come and go
That the good can’t cancel out
Though you might think so
Tragedy just never seems to work like math somehow

I think about what others say
I think I’ll think another way
Rather than surplus and owed
Both sides continue to grow

It’s all positive
Not a take and give
When it washes up on the shore
It's all positive
When you think of it
As addition, another, and more

Nothing can be worth it when you don’t get the choice to pay
Just being alive at the end doesn’t make things okay

Like

I met my best friend
On a day with crystal clear blue skies
Then my dog died and
I became aware that time was both malignant and a lie

I think about what others say
I think I’ll think another way
Rather than up or down low
All space continues to grow

It’s all positive
Not a take and give
When it washes up on the shore
It's all positive
When you think of it
As addition, another, and more

Nothing can be worth it when you don’t get the choice to pay
Just being alive at the end doesn’t make things okay

I think about what others say
I think I’ll think another way
Rather than cons nixing pros
Life just continues to grow
