Beetwen the high expectation
We trod through the same situation
We keep on falling in our little obsessions
Forgot what is wrong what is right

Overall Meaning

The song "High Expectation" by Paprika Korps speaks about the pressure that people face due to the high expectations that society and the people around them have. The lyrics suggest that despite all of us being in the same situation, everyone gives into their little obsessions and forgets what is right and wrong. The song expresses the frustration and the sense of being trapped that people feel when they are unable to meet the expectations demanded of them.

The song's lyrics highlight how the constant pressure of meeting high expectations can lead to individuals losing focus on what is truly important, such as personal growth and morality. The line "We keep on falling in our little obsessions" refers to how people become preoccupied with their desires and ambitions, ultimately leading them to forget what is genuinely essential. The song's overall message is a reminder to stay true to oneself and not let the expectations of others dictate one's decisions and actions.

Line by Line Meaning

Beetwen the high expectation
Amidst our lofty hopes and dreams

We trod through the same situation
We navigate our way through familiar circumstances

We keep on falling in our little obsessions
We repeatedly succumb to our minor fixations

Forgot what is wrong what is right
Having neglected to discern what's moral or just
