lyrics

Low Expectations by oblio © 2011

You cynical fool, open up your eyes.
There were days when we dreamed, now you don't even try.
I partake, you partook, and developed my fears…
Now all my lost hopes fill up inside here.

You know the place your headed, I can't see where you're taking me.
Your hopes and dreams for your life… they don't occur, or I can't see.

Partially protected, but I'm open at the flank.
Tried to be leader, but the fish head stank.
I got a lot of muscle, but my head's too strong.
Now I'm living pretty good, probably won't last me too long.

(Chorus)

I wanna be the lover of a girl like no other,
I wanna be good so I can stay out of hell.
I try to learn my lessons, but I don't know why I bother…
'cause it probably won't go that well.

Of all my faults and failures, the two I love the most:
She's the hole inside my head, and He's the Holy Ghost.
From all this celebration, the poisons I misuse…
No more lying for the wolf boy, no more poor excuse.

(Chorus)

Love me… I don't know if you do… So I'll wait and see.
Hate me… if you knew me like I do, then probably.
Take me… to the low side of my pride… and the gates of hell…
…where I'd buy back my soul, but it probably won't go that well.
