The worst thing when you know what you need Is when your needs are not met And you know you have to leave But you tell yourself "Not yet". Then you hope they will change, But you know that's not fair. You can't ask them to do that When you can't do it yourself. Now you cry in the dark And you're lonely and scared. "What if there's no one there?" "What if no one here cares?" Now you have an eternity To live by yourself And they say: "You'll be free!", But is it freedom? Or hell?

painful expectations
The worst thing when you know what you need Is when your needs are not met And you know you have to leave But you tell yourself "Not yet". Then you hope they will change, But you know that's not fair. You can't ask them to do that When you can't do it yourself. Now you cry in the dark And you're lonely and scared. "What if there's no one there?" "What if no one here cares?" Now you have an eternity To live by yourself And they say: "You'll be free!", But is it freedom? Or hell?
