Expectations Songtext

von Hello Demons... Meet Skeletons

A long night and the world has shut you down
A cry for empathy
You save face but the cycle goes around
And you can barely breathe
The cruel sound of a thousand broken plans
And still nothing gives
Head down and eyes dead you are, the way you live

I'll find a better picture of
The person we all used to love
And if all the same to you
I'll take the life you're giving up
And I'll save those days
To spread around a desperate world

The truth's out but the clever one evades
A needed remedy
The wicked tongue and the monster you became
Will keep you far from sleep
The dead end is such a complicated place
You go and dive right in
Keep your eyes shut and pray to the God you hate
Don't you remember him?

I'll find a better picture of
The person we all used to love
And if all the same to you
I'll take the life you're giving up
And I'll save those days
To spread around a desperate world

I'll keep you right here next to me
(But keep you out of my head)
I'll keep you right here next to me
(But stay out of my head)

I'm gonna cast a few stones
You're gonna bury this
It's coming back tenfold
But you deserve the sting
You deserve the pain
You deserve the pain you feel

I'll find a better picture of
The person we all used to love
And if all the same to you
I'll take the life you're giving up
And I'll save those days
To spread around a desperate world
