Expectations


Do they not understand

Do they feel the stress behind our eyes

Do they feel the expectations weighing down on our shoulders

We do.

 

We do not realize that you want the best

We feel pressured

Pressured, Pressured, Pressured

We do.

 

Who are we?

Who will we be?

Too many unanswered questions

Feel the shaky energy pumping through your veins

Do they not understand?

 

We do.
