Empty Optimism

People being optimistic when there's really nothing to be optimistic about. A sense that someone's positivity has no merit and is practically wasted because almost if not everything is purely negative at the time. This kind of thinking can be toxic because being happy all the time, even and especially during hardship, doesn't necessarily solve anything.
I'm getting tired of the amount of Empty Optimism that everyone around me is exerting. There's really nothing to be happy about right now.

Emptiness

Sometimes I get a little lonely
Sometimes I get a little sad
Sometimes I get so sick and tired of people telling me
They're the best friends I ever had
So I just say to them
It's so empty in here
Sometimes I get a little angry
Sometimes I get a little mad
Sometimes I get so sick and tired of people telling me
Everything I do is so bad
I can't get used to all this emptiness
I can't get used to all this emptiness
I can't get used to all this emptiness that I feel
Just isn't real
What is that you're telling me
You can't get used to it
I just want to tell you one thing
Sometimes I get a little confused
Sometimes I just don't know
Just don't know what to do
I don't want all you people telling me
That I'm some, I'm some crazy kind of fool
I can't get used to all this emptiness
I can't get used to all this emptiness
I can't get used to all this emptiness that I feel
Just isn't real
Oh that's just the way I feel
What are you trying to tell me?
I guess I just have to keep on singing
I guess I just have to go right on saying
Oh yeah I'm so empty
