Explode

I'm dying to learn what you want me to be
But don't you understand?
Your expectations I can't complete
And here I'm trying to understand
Who I really am and where I am
Your voice is sounding like a gun for me right now
And I'm alredy hurt
So now just watch me drown into this void
Where I'm confused and trying to not screaming all out loud
'Cause I have a lot say
(Oh)

So could you please stop pointing your fingers on my mistakes?
'Cause I've never blamed you
And always wanted to make you proud of me
Why do I feel that everything I do
Isn't good enough for your expectations?
God knows how much I've been trying to hold myself

What is this feeling inside of me? (inside of me)
Can you hear the tick tock inside my body? (inside my body, yeah)
Like a ticking time bomb
Ready to detonate
I feel like I'm going to explode someday (someday)
And my time only diminishes with
Every expectations that they place on me (that they place on me)
I've been so sad, but no one notices
They don't even try to defuse the bomb that they build inside of me
God, how am I supposed to set me free?

I feel the obligation to
Fulfill everything that is expected of me
This a prison and I want to be free
I'm chained
Repeating that this isn't right
And that I didn't come into the world to please everyone
Deep down I know that there will always be
Those who disapprove the person I am
And it's not like I need acceptances
But I don't want to disappoint anyone, you know?
God, why do people place expectations on others
And not on themselves?

So could you please stop pointing your fingers on my mistakes?
