Life As Expected Lyrics


Pull back the sheets
And climb in bed with me
We can talk all night
I'm not tired, are you?
I'm not tired, are you?
Did you like the party?
Did you see any pretty girls there?Not that it matters
Neither of us are alone
Neither of us are alone
But sometimes it feels that way
So I need a sign
Give me your hand
No more life as expected
I'm through with the usual
I want to fall in loveBut if my mouth stays shut, and I don't speak up
Then she'll never know, then she'll never know
If I can't relax, if I can't tell her how I really feel
What she really means to meThe cops showed up

About a quarter to two
I didn't even notice
I was so immersed in my conversation with you
The band's too loud
Somebody tell them
Somebody tell them to turn it downI don't want to hear a sound
Except for her voice
Except for her breath
Except for my beating heart
Begging her to come closer and closer
Oh, I want her close to me
But if the hands don't clap
And if I can't relax
This is hopelessness
Why do I even try?
Because tonight will end
And my life goes on
Like it always has
Like it's always going toThe chorus is done
And we're still standing
In our standard melody
Only one of us is alone
Only one of us is alone
And it's not you
And it's not you
Thank God it's not you

Commander Venus was an indie rock band from Omaha, Nebraska, fronted by singer-songwriter Conor Oberst of the bands Bright Eyes and Desaparecidos. The band also included many other notable performers, such as Todd Fink and Matt Bowen of The Faint, and Tim Kasher of Cursive and The Good Life, Ben Armstrong of Head of Femur and Robb Nansel, executive producer of the indie label saddle creek. They recorded two albums, Do You Feel at Home? on Saddle Creek and The Uneventful Vacation, on Grass Records, which became Wind-up Records, that ultimately licensed the CD to Thick Records.
