Expect

Every time I notice how hurt you were

I break more and more

I get sick to my stomach

Just knowing what you keep on going through


I don't know how you do it

I could never be like you

No one will ever be as good as you

It makes no sense, how can you still endure it?


Sometimes I notice how it makes you stronger

And I think I'm gonna cry again

I wish I could do that

I wish I could save you too

You said I do

But I know it's not really true


Oh no

I shouldn't pay so much attention

Oh no

This is my permanent distraction


It's fine

I know you're gonna make it

It's fine

You'll protect me since I can't protect you


Too bad

We'll just feel the damage again

Too bad

I'm afraid of what to expect this time
