Up

Maybe I am a romantic fool
But surely you should take pride
In what you do
Have a goal you want to achieve
Or you might as well get up...
And leave

Maybe by hoping you become ripe for a fall
Thinking the best of others like banging
Your head to a wall
If enthusiasm won't pick them up in the flow
Then you might as well get up...
And go

Maybe life is there to make you weep
Positivity is a hard frame of mind
In which to keep
And if you can't feel the joy and fun
Well, you might as well get up...
And run

Maybe these feelings will drift away
That somewhere down the line
Is a bright sunny day
But if the present won't keep you satisfied and alert
Then you might as well get up...
And desert
