[Verse 1]

I always thought that I would be somewhere else by now

Somewhere I could sleep well

Cause waves of emotion always drown me

I’ve been losing my concentration

I’ve come down from high elevation

Now looking through all my creations

One thing remains the same

I’ve lowered my expectations

Gave up on love and waiting

I just miss your conversation

It gave my life some sort of patience

I’ve given all I can

I think it’s time to take my stand

And change what I can

Blame no one for the spot I’m in except myself

[Chorus]

How do I ignore who I am

How will I get used to your plan

Without some sort of vision

I’ve lowered my expectations of you

[Verse 2]

Sometimes I feel like why should I bother

Not too many things are going to change or gonna alter

Maybe I’m just caught up in nostalgia

Focused on my flaws too much and not on my mantra

I want us both in places that we’ve never been

I want to be somewhere that’s out my element

Cause things I know have happened that I won’t forget

I know your mind is racing

Mostly cause times are changing

Ones who you thought amazing

End up on the cutting room floor

[Verse 3]

The hardest part to grasp is

Getting rid of the control you wish you had

It doesn't work like that

So you fold your arms and you sew your mouth shut

Thinking after all the love I gave, why should I give a fuck

And you slowly lose yourself over nothing

You can't refrain from feeling attacked

You let yourself grow close and attached

To things you think will fix what's not even broken

You drift so far from faith and the facts

You stress your heart with no place to relax

And you don't even know your wounds are open

So how will you protect them

[Chorus]

How do I ignore who I am (How do I ignore who I am)

How will I get used to your plan

Without some sort of vision (Sort of vision)

I’ve lowered my expectations of you
