Expectations
I wish the world would just crash down on me
It's always looming
I wish the world would just call me out
Instead of just assuming
Then you would see I'm exactly what you expected
But vileness and hypocrisy I have at least perfected
Don't act like that's not what you hoped I'd be
Don't act like you think you're better than me
You wanna feel validated
Intoxicated
You wanna feel defiled
A little wild
You want me to despise you
You want me to surprise you
Expectations
On my shoulders
I feel the weight
Of all these boulders
Dragging me down
I hit the ground
I am not proud
I am not lost
Nor am I found
Yet I am crowned
