Expectations

I'm just going to eat rice crackers all day
Until the flavour gets rid of the taste
And I'll get very thin
And hopefully fit in
To the dress you don't want me to waste

I'm just going to work hard all day
Until I collapse for lack of a break
And I won't have much fun
But I'll get all the work done
Then find it was all a mistake

I'm just going to speak language all day
Utnil you hear what I have to say
And my words will fall down
Make a mess on the ground
Then they'll sweep all the meaning away

I spent all my money today
On all sorts of creations to make myself sane
And when I got home
I realised I'm alone
Not everyone wastes money this way

Tomorrow I'm staying in bed
Just getting up is a thought that I dread
And living again
The day I lived today
I think I would rather be dead
