Kris Henriksen - Expectations

You never took the blame
All I felt was shame
You always looked so disappointed
I live my life outside the frame

All your pent up rage
You're screaming in my face
Your voice an echo inside my head
I felt trapped in a cage

I could never meet your expectations
Or your objections

Your shadow watching over me
An indentation in my mind

You locked me in the dark
You robbed me of my spark
All I wanted was to impress you
But your words left their mark

You tricked me like a fool
It made you feel cool
You always treat me like I'm a child
But you are nothing but cruel
I could never meet your expectations
Or your objections

Your shadow watching over me
An indentation in my mind

You don't know how to apologise
You always go around spreading lies
You dismiss everything I say
You're pushing me away

I could never meet your expectations
Or your objections

Your shadow watching over me
An indentation in my mind
