TechShira - Toxic Positivity Lyrics

Clapping through collapse, like it's fine
Smiling during chaos by design
"Find the silver lining," but I can't see
The roof's on fire, and you're cheering for me

Say it's great while it's crashing down
Hand out crowns as we all drown
If you think this is progress, here's the deal
You need to get real

Sunshine never fixes what's wrong
Rainbows are nice but don't last long
"Stay positive" won't clear this mess
We need action, nothing less

Toxic positivity, we've had enough
We're drowning, and you're throwing fluff
Captains don't smile as the ship goes down
Your fake cheer belongs in the lost and found

Put down the act, stop playing pretend
We're done with it, this has to end

Whistling past the graveyard, sinking slow
Thinking high-fives will stop the flow
You can't patch cracks with a glitter gun
We need a plan, not empty fun

You say "good vibes only," but I call bluff
The team's falling apart, and you gloss it up
Your blind optimism just doesn't show
Wipe that smile off-it's gotta go

You think pep talks will stop the leaks
But we've been sinking for so many weeks
Your words don't help, they only hide
We need truth, not just the ride

Toxic positivity, we've had enough
We're drowning, and you're throwing fluff
Captains don't smile as the ship goes down
Your fake cheer belongs in the lost and found

Put down the act, stop playing pretend
We're done with it, this has to end

It's not 'negative' to tell you what's true
Ignoring the fire won't get us through
Your smile's a Band-Aid on a broken bone
We need help, not your happy-tone

Toxic positivity, we've had enough
We're drowning, and you're throwing fluff
Captains don't smile as the ship goes down
Your fake cheer belongs in the lost and found

Put down the act, stop playing pretend
We're done with it, this has to end

Cut the act, we're over the cheer
Your toxic front is crystal clear
