Expectations

It's like going to five guys and getting two shakes for one
You did not ask or think to expect a second cup
It's like grabbing your cat to sit on your lap but she runs away
You're not mad you're just a little sad cause you wish she would stay

I've learned to expect through the dry spells and the rain
It's on me to collect reasons to wait
And we dry up every minute you ignore my texts
If only you'd tell me what you're thinking
Don't hit me up if you're only gonna get me down
I swear to God, I can't wait to get out of town

It's like making an acquaintance and offering your palm for a handshake
But they treat you like family and go in for a hug straight away
It's like buying a big bag of chips to sneak in the movies
But when you open the bag it's a drag to find you bought air, slightly salty

I've learned to expect through the sparklers and the spray
It's on me to collect reasons to wait
And we light up in a minute when you kiss my neck
If only you'd tell me what you're thinking
Don't feel me up if you're only gonna get me down
I swear to God, I can't wait to get out of town

I just wanna be alone somewhere
In my own little box, on top of a mountain
I just wanna get out of everyone's hair
By defusing disasters waiting to happen
I'm sick of expectations getting high-balled and lowed
I just wanna feel like I'm in control
So goodbye, zero six double-O two
It's my time, I'm ready now for something new
