High Expectation

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.

Do you really want

To love someone

Who does not love you

Do you really want

To stab your

Enemy in the back

Stab him in front

I don't, I don't, I don't, I'm sorry.

I don't, I don't, I don't, I'm sorry.

I don't, I don't, I don't, I'm sorry.

I don't, I don't, I don't, I'm sorry.

I don't, I don't, I don't, I'm sorry.

I don't, I don't, I don't, I'm sorry.

I don't, I don't, I don't, I'm sorry.

Is it what you want

I don't, I don't, I don't, I'm sorry.

I don't, I don't, I don't, I'm sorry.

I don't, I don't, I don't, I'm sorry.

Do you want to be the offshoot of delusion

Do you think they'll mind your decision

I'm sorry

I don't, I don't, I don't, I'm sorry.

I don't, I don't, I don't, I'm sorry.

I don't, I don't, I don't, I'm sorry.

Do you feel you owe the errant foe

Anything at all

I don't, I don't, I don't, I sorry.

I don't, I don't, I don't, I sorry.

I don't, I don't, I don't, I sorry.

Do you want to be the offshoot of delusion

give in to resignation

I'm sorry.

I won't, I won't, I won't, I sorry.

I won't, I won't, I won't, I sorry.

I won't, I won't, I won't, I sorry.

Do you feel you owe the errant foe

Anything at all

I don't, I don't, I don't, I'm sorry.

I don't, I don't, I don't, I'm sorry.

I don't, I don't, I don't, I'm sorry.
