Expected

i don't want to hurt anymore.
i'm tired of being tired.
i built you up higher then you could reach.
i'm sorry i expected too much.
i expected you to care.
i expected you to love.
i expected way too much from you.

i don't want to argue with you.
you won't let me win the battle,
so i've stopped the war.
i'm sorry i expected too much.
i expected you to try.
i expected you to reach out.
i expected way too much from you.

i can't think of a solution.
this mess is too big to fix.
you'll have to carry your own baggage now.
i'm sorry i expected too much.
i expected you to open up.
i expected you to trust.
i expected way too much from you.

you tried to set the bar low,
but i pole vaulted over you,
and expected you to keep up the pace.
i know now i expected way too much.
i expected respect.
i expected a committment.
i was stupid to expect so much from you!
