Expectations
Ana The Changes Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Wake me for they never sleep
Oh I've been patient by all means tempted
Oh I've been persistent and Ive attempted this
And it came and left with bliss
All the wrongs I made I aimed to feel
long time ago I was taught like this
Hey to the abandonment that awaits
That night it was our little bait
And after all the shivers and the sedatives
I loved you more than I ever did
it came and left with bliss
All the wrongs I made I aimed to feel
long time ago I was taught like this
Maybe it is changing me
It's changing me
It's changing me
It's changing me
And I've been here before
And after all the damage is done
the damage, the damage is all mine
after all the expectations are found
it came and left with bliss
All the wrongs I made I aimed to feel
Because a long time ago I was taught like this
Maybe it is changing me

Hello to expectations that always
Greeting the ever-present expectations
Wake me for they never sleep
Alerting me constantly as they remain constantly active
Oh I've been patient by all means tempted
Though tempted, I have maintained my patience
Oh I've been persistent and Ive attempted this
I've been unwavering and have made relentless efforts
And it came and left with bliss
The outcome arrived and departed with happiness
All the wrongs I made I aimed to feel
Intentionally seeking to experience the consequences of my mistakes
long time ago I was taught like this
I was educated in this manner a while back
Maybe it is changing me
Possibly undergoing a transformation
Hey to the abandonment that awaits
Acknowledgment to the future abandonment that looms
That night it was our little bait
Referring to a specific night that served as a trap
And after all the shivers and the sedatives
Following the tremors and calming medications
I loved you more than I ever did
My love for you increased beyond any previous limit
And I've been here before
I have experienced this situation previously
And after all the damage is done
Once the destruction has been completed
the damage, the damage is all mine
Taking responsibility for the inflicted harm
after all the expectations are found
Upon discovering the presence of all the previously mentioned expectations
It's changing me
I am being transformed
It's changing me
I am being transformed
It's changing me
I am being transformed
Because a long time ago I was taught like this
As I was taught in this way a while ago
Maybe it is changing me
Perhaps it is altering my being
