about

The Way We'll Expect It To Be is kind of like the title track of the album without actually having the same name as it, it's a song that follows the album's concept of expectations and reality and in order to find true happiness and content for ourselves we shouldn't let our expectations influence our reality otherwise it will overall result negatively a majority of the time.

lyrics

I am content with those things I never did,
I am content with those words I never said,

So let's hang our heads like the moon in the sky,
Let's feel guts plummet like lovesick fools enticed.

I'll live like it's the end as I know I'll pay for my actions,
And I'll expect the worst to prepare for the worse for when it eventually happens,
Knowing it'll occur whilst the clock hands are ticking slower,
Waiting for that day my cup eventually runneth over.

I am content with those things I never did,
I am content with those words I never said,

So let's hang our heads like the moon in the sky,
Let's feel guts plummet like lovesick fools enticed.

It's far too late to make all my amends this far in life,
So all I can hope is that I won't make the same mistakes twice,
Im happy with this outcome yet I taste the bittersweet thought,
Of whatever happened and what the future might have/should have brought.
