Jude Prestidge - Unmet Expectations Lyrics

I try so hard
And yet I fail
To reach out my hand
And ask for help

Leave me in the dust
I like it here
Don't wanna ask too much

I'll wipe away my own tears
I'll wipe away my own tears

I'm clinging onto my pride just to keep me alive
Or that's what I think
I have to do to survive
I have to cling to my pride
But now I'm not sure

Do they love me?
Or do they hate me?
What they think determines who I'll be

Painful introspection shows
That I've fallen short
My imperfect standards are
My only support

Can't I just love you without being vulnerable?
Can't I just trust you without letting go?
I'm stuck in a cycle and it's too late to stop it now
You should just let me go

I'll try so hard
And I will fail
But I'm worth more than my thoughts
And my own judgement
I thank God for that

I thank God for that
(I thank You for that, I thank You for that)
I thank God for that
(I thank You for that, I thank You for that)
I thank God for that
(I thank You for that, I thank You for that)
I thank God for that
(I thank You for that, I thank You for that)
I thank God for that
