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?
