Nonplussed

Nonplussed
To accept what you're gonna get
Certain that it will only please you
Too absorbed to look ahead
Waiting for the moment to seize you

Whatever you expect
Remember when you were grinning?
Let him fall into a trap
Prevent him from ever coming back

Don't know how I put up with it
Not allowed to correct their behaviour
Soon as they're done bashing me
Look who comes round asking for favours

I'm already tapped out
My friend gave at the office
It's all there for you to balance out
Nothing more to dispute about
Whatever you expect
I'm sure you won't be nonplussed
Speechless with incredulity
Stricken by reality

You think you know what kind of life you deserve
Head down the road without so much as a curve
Hope you don't mind if I decline to forsake
One more victim to your furious wake

Could be the most perfect time
To centre your Heaven behind you
Could be that the light you see
Is only there shining to blind you

I won't guide you along
You want me to be honest
You reach for me just to see me fail
Defeated by the rocky trail
Whatever you expect
I'm sure you won't be nonplussed
Speechless with incredulity
Stricken by reality
