You can't tell me, why? you only the moon shine on? and I know, I wanna know, I wanna know, I wanna know We said "ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah" Why? you only let the moon shine on ? Everyone is getting in the way, and everything is harder to maintain, So don't you wish that you could have a dream, the moon was shining all around your feet, you looked up and they looked so damn complete, she said "im waiting for you all to fall asleep" and you say that you are positively sure! no matter what you'll always be my world, and as time goes by, you might still be afraid, but just wait, just wait you can't tell me, why you only let the moon shine on

For You 02:11
You say it's compelling how your heart feels like it's melting, you are not another mystery girl, you say it'll be awhile i just want to see you smile, can you make feel apart of this world? wouldn't it be appealing i this suffering was healing, and the feeling of this sadness would burn ? we could take a trip, and we could sail away by ship, and watch the world as it continues to turn we could pass it off as magic and pretend it makes us mad, and tell the world we're dissapointed in truth, i could make up all these songs and all the birds could sing along, because they know that im just singing for you for you, for you, for you, for you for you, for you, for you, for you

Someday 02:44
Someday, you will feel alone, Desperate times are singing soft and there's no way home, and you feel like the moon, who needs the sun just to stay in tune, and i know that seems that might not happen soon. Someday, you will feel surprised, endless gaze into these dreams that will make you smile, cornered by reality that don't seem worthwhile, i will keep you safe, i will keep you up to pace, and i'll try my best until the day i die, said i'll try my best until the day, i will try my best until the day die.
10.
I want, want you to see me Unless, you don't want to meet me Meet me in the corner of town, maybe should try to slow down I've heard, I've heard the rumors, I could care less, meet me sooner stuck out in the positive rain, i think it's gonna be ok Ahhhhh, Ahhhhh, the positive rain Ahhhhh, ahhhhhh, the positive rain Will you, will you regret me? Will you be glad that you met me, help me with this positive rain, our consciousness is what we train, i'm stuck out of the positive stuck out in the positive stuck out in the positive rain,

I want dark with brown hair, pale white with yellow, want a blonde who attacks, red thats never mellow, want a girl with tatoos who thinks like a criminal, emotions all void, i can't destroy them all, a girl thats so mean, she always acts rude, and keeps her eye on me, tells me what to do I said dark with bright hair, skin tight with yellow, like a girl with tatoos, thinks like a criminal Take me to the moon and bring me right back, and tell me im scum, and that im hard to look at, tell me that i can't play this guitar, tell me that i probably won't get too far, tell me that i should be lonely, tell me that i should be lonely, I want dark with brown hair, pale white with yellow, want a blonde who attacks! red thats never mellow! want a girl with tatoos that thinks like a criminal emotions all void so i cant destroy them all i need a mean girl, always acts rude who keeps her eye on me, tells me what to do i said dark with brown hair, pale white with yellow like a girl with tatoos who thinks like a criminal, SO!
12.
Give me something to think about, 'cause i'm ready, feel steady, and free tell me something I don't know, and i'll follow, until i'm bored (chorus) Ohh, ahh, ohh, ahh Feel free just to tell me no, 'cause i'm crazy, and not like them, if you noticed that is so, then you caught me, so hack my brain
13.
I took all my hopeless and I put it away, Wherever it's residing I sure it hope it stays, 'cause everything, everything's too real I called you on the phone just to see what you were doing, you said "I ain't doin' much, but I sure am groovin'" I might fall right back, fall right back to you And can't you hear what I'm saying? cause I don't so much hear you, it doesn't leave me much to do but I hope you're ok and can't you see what i'm doing, 'cause I don't so much see you, it doesn't leave me much to do, but I hope you're ok
14.
Absent Mind 01:57
I don't see the sun sometimes, but that's alright, got an absent mind, if I held you near me, honey, would you fear me ? I don't see the moon sometimes, but when it's bright, it's the afterlife, 'cause I see you waiting, and I have the patience, I feel like I'm just waiting all the time, and i know that this is all a state of mind, I don't know if you've been watching me when I become out of touch, It's a nightmare, darling, does it seem I'm falling out ? Happy people I observe only make me feel like I never learned, how to be a person, who can see it worth it. Can you see the color in the sky? I can see the darkness in your eyes.
15.
Say this, say that, the wrong side of the line, is what you're gonna cross, if you're searching and you find, that it's not a question if you redirect it back to me, I took my blade and stuck it through her heart, it seemed it took a moment just before it charmed her out, to a place, and i never saw her face look the same and we heard, Soft soft soft soft sounding music, soft soft soft soft sounding music, soft soft soft soft sounding music, soft soft soft soft sounding music, say this, say that, hit right between the eyes, it comes like a surprise, like a blessing in disguise, and then you gotta shake it or you'll never make it out (and there's no way out) say this, say that, say this, say that, say this, say that, say this, say that, Soft soft soft soft sounding music, soft soft soft soft sounding music, soft soft soft soft sounding music, soft soft soft soft sounding music, Soft soft soft soft sounding music, soft soft soft soft sounding music, soft soft soft soft sounding music, soft soft soft soft sounding music,
16.
One for the world, one for my hopeless falling away each day, 'cause each day is better than before! Two for my dreams, two 'cause i realize mine are much different than yours, and baby, I think that's just strange Everyday, it feels like i'm wasting away, but i'm not, Three for my love, three 'cause i'm always remembering how good it was, but now it just feels like a dream! four for my pain, for for just noticing clearly it won't go away, and nothing will ever be the same

about

"Hopeless Positivity" is Scott Robinson's first debut non-studio album released on May 1st, 2015. Prior to the album, Scott had customarily recorded in destitution which was considered by many to be "unsustainable" Robinson received heavy criticism for this quality of music, or lackthereof, and affirmed that he would at last make an effort in reproducing said songs into a workable format that was more easily approachable. Robinson is inspired by bands such as The Beatles, Daniel Johnston, and Elliot smith.

Robinson's first album "Hopeless Positivity" is a collection of both new and remastered versions of older Lo-fi songs that appeared on his 2013 album "Home Recordings" which is to this day considered a good example of "melodic vitriol"

The title for the album came from track number 7 titlted "Hopeless Positivity" and when asked about the inspiration for the title Robinson stated "it just seemed like a good description of the albums message"
