Alive Like Me - What Did You Expect lyrics

rate me

I'm gonna say something you don't want to hear

You can't live up to lies

That you have built inside

Your head for all these years

You’re gonna cave just like we expected and

When you break

I will stand collected staring at the floor

Watching me pick up the broken pieces

Are you holding back the truth from me so much that

I can start to see right through you

Why did it take so long?

To get across the message

I’ll have to get this off of my chest

Slow down

You keep on running when the problem is yourself

So pick your head up and change direction

While you still recognize reflections of yourself

Slow down

The problem’s you and no one else

The problem’s you and no one else

And if you can close your eyes

And fall asleep tonight

You can escape this nightmare

That you call your life

While your actions are burning bridges down

Shutting doors that your words cannot reopen anymore

Knowing it only gets worse when you wake up

Thinking that there’s something real

When fallacy is all you feel

Just tell me

Why did it take so long?

To get across the message

I’ll have to get this off of my chest

Slow down

You keep on running when the problem is yourself

So pick your head up and change direction

While you still recognize reflections of yourself

Slow down

The problem’s you and no one else

What did you expect from being so deceiving?

Every other second you had me believing

There was something wrong with me

But it was just another thing

That I let get inside my head

Based off all the lies you said

Are you holding back the truth from me so much that

I can start to see right through you

Why did it take so long?

To get across the message

I’ll have to get this off of my chest

Slow down

You keep on running when the problem is yourself

So pick your head up and change direction

While you still recognize reflections of yourself

Slow down

The problems you and no one else

Slow down

What did you expect from being so deceiving ?

Every other second you had me believing

There was something wrong with me

But it was just another thing

That I let get inside my head based off all the lies you said
