Expectations Lyrics

You never took the blame

All I felt was shame

You always looked so disappointed

I live my life outside the frame

All your pent up rage

You're screaming in my face

Your voice an echo inside my head

I felt trapped in a cage

I could never meet your expectations

Or your objections

Your shadow watching over me

An indentation in my mind

You locked me in the dark

You robbed me of my spark

All I wanted was to impress you

But your words left their mark

You tricked me like a fool

It made you feel cool

You always treat me like I'm a child

But you are nothing but cruel

I could never meet your expectations

Or your objections

Your shadow watching over me

An indentation in my mind

You don't know how to apologise

You always go around spreading lies

You dismiss everything I say

You're pushing me away

I could never meet your expectations

Or your objections

Your shadow watching over me

An indentation in my mind
