I've wondered about this for so long
Tell me where exactly did I go wrong
You always thought you stood up so tall
You weren't but now I'll take the fall
It's beautiful when it's false
When all hope is lost
It's beautiful when it's a false
Expectation, yeah
So I took the virgin by her hair
I made her mine everywhere
But now she's broken - needs repaired
It's beautiful when it's false
When all hope is lost
It's beautiful when it's a false
Expectation, yeah
We watched the sun burn
Through autumn skies
Night-light in a daze, yeah
Watch as we burn in the sky
In the sky
In the sky
Truly oddball pop from Sharif Ali combines smooth synths, groovy electric piano, and Karoke-style crooning into a strangely catchy whole. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 5, 2020
