Not What I Expected
Unraveling Emotions: Not What I Expected
Lyrics
I've got a vision in my head
Describing a personal expectation
Of how it should be
Anticipating how things ought to be
And I wonder if that's how
Questioning if the envisioned scenario will unfold
It will work out
Speculating on the outcome
When I sit down will I be smiling
Contemplating emotional response
A grin on my face
Considering a positive outcome
Or will I just want her to
Raising doubt or uncertainty
Get out of my head and my mind
Desiring mental and emotional separation
That's how it goes
Reflecting on the typical course of events
And then she shows
Observing a deviation from the norm
And it's all wrong
Expressing dissatisfaction with the situation
I feel her hand touch on my arm
Physical contact eliciting a negative reaction
And my skin grows cold
Feeling discomfort or unease
How can this be
Expressing confusion or disbelief
Why's it so fake
Questioning authenticity or sincerity
And why's it so false
Reflecting on the falseness of the situation
How should I tell her
Contemplating the need for honesty
She should go
Suggesting the person should leave
Cause it's all my fault
Taking responsibility for the situation
I let my heart get ahead
Admitting a mistake of prioritizing emotions
Of my mind and everything else
Recognizing the impact on thoughts and actions
