lyrics

beware of the call
to sulk and step aside
they push you to fall
but fail to crush your pride

such great expectations
with half of the patience
afraid of convention
the child in you cries
despite what you told her

what happens between
moments that may never come
a bullet is dodged
and the bright lights will find you
will you even recall or concede
the echoes that made you a star
when the claps turn to pleads
will you run
will you run
will you run

such great expectations
with half of the patience
afraid of resentment
the child in you cried
despite what you told her

the overly concerned
clutching every pearl
heretics and judges
lurk at every turn

such great expectations
we get what we deserve
such great expectations
fear lack of motivation

A collision of sounds. A thoughtful and whimsical blend of man versus machine.
