[Verse 1] You look at me like I’m a mirror Hoping I’ll fix what you can’t find Tracing your fears on my shoulders Calling that love Calling that right I’m not your proof I’m not your savior You’re not my promise of the prize Two lonely futures on the table Both of us hiding in our eyes [Pre-Chorus] Every word you never say Still decides the part you play Tell yourself I’ll always stay Watch that story make you break [Chorus] I’m not here to live up to your expectations You’re not here to carry every one of mine Love is unexpected when it comes No explanation If we stop pretending Maybe we’ll be fine So don’t write the ending as a self-fulfilling prophecy Hold me as I am Not as a fantasy If we fall We fall in honest gravity No expectations Just you and me [Verse 2] You turn goodbyes into predictions Say you “knew it from the start” But you rehearsed every rejection Till it moved into your heart You read my silence like a sentence I breathe You call that crime We keep on keeping score in secret Losing together every time [Pre-Chorus] Tell me Can we stay tonight Without choosing who is right Drop the roles we memorize Meet me underneath the lies [Chorus] I’m not here to live up to your expectations You’re not here to carry every one of mine Love is unexpected when it comes No explanation If we stop pretending Maybe we’ll be fine So don’t write the ending as a self-fulfilling prophecy Hold me as I am Not as a fantasy If we fall We fall in honest gravity No expectations Just you and me [Bridge] [beat falls away Piano and voice] What if you don’t read my mind? What if I just speak this time? I’m scared you’ll leave You’re scared you’ll stay Can we love in all this gray? (oh) Stop idealizing what we’re not Touch the present that we’ve got If we both step out of line Maybe we can both be right [Chorus] I’m not here to live up to your expectations You’re not here to carry every one of mine Love is unexpected when it comes No explanation If we stop pretending Maybe we’ll be fine So don’t write the ending as a self-fulfilling prophecy Hold me as I am Not as a fantasy If we fall We fall in honest gravity No expectations Just you and me (just you and me)
