Expectations

by Sheltered   Nov 3, 2005


Have you ever wondered...
What hides behind a snail’s shell?
Maybe it’s little own paradise...
Or it’s eternal living hell…

Well...It’s the same for us...
People judge you on the outside...
Without letting you explain...
Why in your mind, it rains...

I walk around and the only thing I see...
Are people staring at me...
They think I’m stupid...
Lazy and fat...
And all they think is that...
They are all that...

Have they EVER...
LIVED WITH THIS CHIP ON THEIR SHOULDERS?!
LIVED KNOWING YOU’LL NEVER BE ABLE TO HOLD HER?!
LIVED KNOWING THAT YOU’LL BE THE CENTER OF RIDICULE?!
LIVED KNOWING THAT YOU' LL BE TRYING TO BE BOLDER?!

People talk about me...
Like I’m some type of freak...
Just because I’m not able to meet...
Their expectations...

Of being like a stick?
Acting like a frick?
Being thin?
What has been stuck in my heart is a pin...

That will NOT go away...
It is here to stay...
But I’m here today...
To say...

SCREW YOU ALL AND YOUR EXPECTATIONS!
I WILL MAN MY INNER STATIONS!
I WILL PUT UP WITH ALL THE SPIT!
I’M WILLING TO TAKE THE HIT!

But you have to know...
That which you do not know...
I’m getting tired of it...
And my heart is soon going to throw...
