lyrics

I get the feeling you don’t like me,
Except when you talk about me to your friends.
You always mention the career I ended up in,
I wish you’d drop this whole charade and ask me something.

I get the feeling you don’t like me,
Except for when you cry when I get in.
It must be something in the air, or that I did,
Maybe you’re just remembering me as a kid.

You’re falling short of my expectations
You’re falling short of my expectations
You’re falling short of my expectations
You’re falling short of my expectations

I can’t help feeling, sorry for myself
I’m sorry for the distance, and what’s been left unsaid.
I thought I’d wait it out, I thought I’d make you proud
Instead you’ve doubled down, I misread this crowd.

I can’t help thinking, that this could all be simpler,
If you’d just work with me, instead of being so bitter
Weren't those bad years enough, tell me it’s just a bluff,
And I’ll stop spending my money on therapy.

You’re falling short of my expectations
You’re falling short of my expectations
You’re falling short of my expectations
You’re falling short of my expectations

You don’t have the power to change someone.
You don’t have the right words, to change a mind.
You don’t know where this might lead,
You don’t want to know, just how far this may go.
You can’t carry that weight, don’t hold onto that shame.
Information can be a danger, and you’ve become strangers.
