ZEBRAHEAD LYRICS - Expectations

"Expectations"



I drove really fast before I hit the wall

I was punch drunk, spinnin' round, heading for a fall

Do or die now, got scared, so I stalled

You can have it all



[Chorus:]

Your eyes inside the back of my mind

Stars collide to see who outshines

Your eyes inside the back of my mind

It's making me blind



We can hate

We can hate each other

We can be down then fuck one another

We can hold it up, then set it on fire

Life is sacrifice and you can be a martyr

But it's more than I can stand

When you're looking down on me

Cause I can't live up to you, that makes me incomplete

I never wanted anything more

So I'll just say good-bye and watch you walk out the door

I want to be all you want me to be

I want to be all you think that you see

Would you leave me here when nobody cares?

I tried really hard not to care at all

Medicate myself

Xanax, alcohol

My admissions made me feel so small

You can keep it all

I can change

We can change for each other

We can let go and accept one another

We can tear it down to the ground and start over

Life is compromise [x2]

So if I let you down then I'll pick you up again

In the end

Suspend confidence in me to come through

To be who I want to be and to do what I want to do

Never turn my back on you



[Chorus]
