Expectation

from Tara Priya by Tara Priya

about

One of the first tracks I recorded for the EP!

lyrics

[1]
Can't you picture the failure?
Can't you already sense disaster up ahead?
You would think I'd be happy
But I know how it's all gonna end

Like a head-on collision, head-on collision
Can't tear my eyes away
Oh what a stupid decision, stupid decision
For me to make

[CHORUS]
If expectation forms reality
Then there's no need to proceed
Every time I get so involved
Don't take a psychic to predict

[2]
Now you can swear to be faithful
And maybe I'll even believe
I'm just afraid that later
You'll change your mind and leave me to grieve

Over a head-on collision, head-on collision
Can't tear my eyess away
Oh what a stupid decision, stupid decision
For me to stay

[CHORUS]
If expectation forms reality
Then there's no need, honey, to proceed
Whenever I get this involved
Don't take a psychic to predict my fall.

I think of you compulsively
It's my version of reciprocity
In the beginning, I didn't even care
Now I'm so desperate, Lord it just ain't fair

[BRIDGE]
I never matched your description
We got attached anyway
We're on the road to perdition
Carry on, anyway

[CHORUS out]
