Miserablism

[00:25.89] It seems to me
[00:26.95] There's something serious beginning
[00:29.34] A new approach found
[00:31.34] To the meaning of life
[00:33.44] Deny that happiness
[00:35.24] Is open as an option
[00:37.48] And disappointment
[00:39.04] Disappears overnight
[00:40.91] Say that love
[00:42.67] Is an impossible dream
[00:44.82] Face the facts
[00:46.72] That's what it's always been
[00:49.24] Relax
[00:50.76] What you see is what you see
[00:52.67] And what you get
[00:54.69] Is a new philosophy
[00:57.58] (That's what you got
[00:59.92] That's what you get)
[01:05.02] Miserablism
[01:09.68] Is is and isn't isn't
[01:12.98] Miserablism
[01:17.30] Is is and isn't isn't
[01:20.10] Meanwhile your life
[01:22.16] Is still directed as a drama
[01:24.93] With realism
[01:26.36] On the sparsest of sets
[01:28.62] Every performance
[01:30.35] Tends to reach the same conclusion
[01:32.85] No happy endings
[01:34.28] But a message to depress
[01:36.17] Saying life
[01:38.06] Is an impossible scheme
[01:40.07] That's the point
[01:42.16] Of this philosophy
[01:48.62] Miserablism
[01:57.01] Is is and isn't isn't
[02:00.45] Miserablism
[02:04.84] Is is and isn't isn't
[02:08.18] But if 'is' wasn't
[02:10.05] And 'isn't' were
[02:12.09] You can't be sure
[02:13.62] But you might find ecstasy
[02:30.58] Oh, no!
[02:47.53] Just for the sake of it
[02:49.58] Make sure you're always frowning
[02:51.35] (Angst! Angst! Angst!)
[02:52.33] It shows the world
[02:53.17] That you've got substance and depth
[02:55.27] You know life
[02:57.05] Is an impossible scheme
[02:59.46] And love
[03:01.06] An imperceptible dream
[03:05.15] (That's what you got
[03:06.36] That's what you get)
[03:11.32] Miserablism
[03:16.09] Is is and isn't isn't
[03:19.33] Miserablism
[03:24.05] Is is and isn't isn't
[03:59.44] Miserable
[04:02.98]
