Expectations

[Verse 1: Justin Mauriello & Ali Tabatabaee]

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

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

[Pre-Chorus 1: Ali Tabatabaee]

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

Never wanted anything more

So I'll just say goodbye and watch you walk out the door

[Chorus: Justin Mauriello]

I wanna be, I wanna be all you want me to be

I wanna to be, I wanna to be all you think that you see

Would you leave me here when nobody cares?

Would you leave me, leave me here, where nobody cares?

[Verse 3: Justin Mauriello & Ali Tabatabaee]

I tried really hard not to care at all

Medicate myself

Xan-ax, alcohol

My admissions made me feel so small

You can keep it all

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

[Pre-Chorus 2: Ali Tabatabaee]

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, life is compromise

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: Justin Mauriello]

I wanna be, I wanna be all you want me to be

I wanna be, I wanna be all you think that you see

Would you leave me here when nobody cares?

Would you leave me, leave me here, where nobody cares?

I wanna be, I wanna be all you want me to be

I wanna be, I wanna be all you think that you see

Would you leave me here when nobody cares?

Would you leave me, leave me here, where nobody cares?
