Expect The World
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It's great to be alive
Expect the world
You know to avoid
And who to stand up for
I don't know what to do
You're moving fast
A mind of your own
Until you fall flat
The people you adore
Will go for that
Mind gap
And it's my death
I don't know how you stand it
I get down, down, down
Games on TV
And girls in swimwear
There's so much to see
And to believe in
I could watch all night
I feel wanted
Mind gap
It's my death
I don't know how you stand it
I get
We're god damned
It's all so sad
I don't know how you stand it
Your mind gap
Down, down, down
Don't know how
Don't know how
Don't know how
I don't get you
Still I don't get you
Your mind gap
Down, down, down
It's great to be alive
Expect the world
