Every day a new depressant
And I'm the only one feeling incredibly bad
Anyway, everything is pointless
And the whole world is terribly unfair
I'm sitting here among a few pessimists
This has been going on for hours and I've really had enough
It's written big and broad on her forehead
"Nothing will get better and certainly never good again."
This is a bad time for optimists
They must be pretty lonely
So let's support them a little
Who wants to be alone?
This is a bad time for optimists
They must be terribly lonely
And I know from personal experience
What it's like to be alone
It can't stay the way it is now
The timing is not bad, just good enough
There are enough signs, we need miracles
And the two of us would be pretty good to start with
This is a bad time for optimists
They must be pretty lonely
So let's support them a little
Who wants to be alone?
This is a bad time for optimists
They must be terribly lonely
And I know from personal experience
What it's like to be alone
Man)

OptimistenOptimists

Optimisten means 'optimists'. It's a direct and impactful word that stands out because the song directly addresses the concept of optimism in a world full of pessimism.

The song's title itself, "Zeit Für Optimisten" (Time For Optimists), highlights this word. Lea uses it to create a contrast between the prevailing negative mood and the need to support those who still hold onto hope, making it a central theme and a memorable word from the lyrics.

Have you ever felt like you're surrounded by negativity? Lea totally gets it in "Zeit Für Optimisten (aus "Sing Meinen Song, Vol. 10")"! She describes a world where "Jeder Tag ein neues Depressivum" [Every day a new depressant] and everyone around her is convinced "alles sinnlos" [everything is pointless]. It's a relatable feeling when you're stuck with a bunch of pessimists, and she's had "echt genug" [really enough] of it.

But even when it feels like "Das ist 'ne schlechte Zeit für Optimisten" [This is a bad time for optimists], Lea reminds us that we shouldn't let them be lonely. She knows "aus eigener Erfahrung Wie es ist allein zu sein" [from my own experience What it's like to be alone]. Instead of giving up, she suggests that "So wie es jetzt ist kann es nicht bleiben" [The way it is now cannot stay] and that we need "Wunder" [miracles]. Maybe, just maybe, we can be those miracles for each other. It's a sweet and hopeful message, even if the world feels a bit bleak sometimes!
