Lighten Up Mate

How dour can you be
that you take this bullshit
so damn seriously?

All your panicky
sky is falling hyperbole
ain't gonna change today's reality
one damn bit

Embrace this truth of history

All the somber blue 
boo hoo life scenarios
which may or may not come true
are gonna play out as destined
just the same without you
and your hand wringing apocalyptic predictions

So let go of the self generated strife
which ruins this grind of a trip
and start looking at the bright side
of this all too fleeting life

Serenity exists in the internal spin
as a natural alternative
when you don't have proper mood medications
