s/\ge - selfish lyrics
[verse 1]
let me start by saying that you know i love ya
now and then i still stop and look at pictures of us
reminiscing ‘bout the good times, then i want ya
but i’d rather walk away than make you suffer
i feel like such a f+ck up
barricaded behind these barriers i stuck up
why do we push away the ones that love us
to avoid reliving pain caused by another
that’s real sh+t
and i know you could help me heal this
but i don’t wanna make you feel this
‘cause it’s not your burden, peel this
exterior back
truthfully look here are the facts
i want love but i can’t give it back
cause the walls ‘round my heart got it trapped
i know, it’s sad
[hook]
you know what it gets like
you ask for more and i decline
so the tension builds
and then we fight
pretend we’re cool but it don’t feel right
the love’s there, but so is resistance
that’s what created the distance
although opening up might help it
i don’t think that i will ‘cause i’m selfish
i’m selfish
there i said it, i’m selfish, on some keep my energy to myself sh+t
to be honest i dunno if i can help it
so selfish
i’m selfish
there i said it, i’m selfish, on some keep my energy to myself sh+t
to be honest i dunno if i can help it
[verse 2]
is this authentic enough?
i’m empty of bluff
but not empty of love
‘cause feel something real whenever i look at my son
when all said and done
i admit that i’m tight with my energy, picky with how i be spending these hours
don’t make me feel guilty for chasing my passions and honing my creative power
i’m sorry if i made you feel like you don’t deserve the very freedom i speak of
i feel like we were on journey together but somewhere we took a detour
so although it hurts
to ignore the truth is worse
i don’t wanna go ‘round in circ’s
it helps me heal to put it down in words
[hook]
you know what it gets like
you ask for more and i decline
so the tension builds
and then we fight
pretend we’re cool but it don’t feel right
the love’s there, but so is resistance
that’s what created the distance
although opening up might help it
i don’t think that i will ‘cause i’m selfish
i’m selfish
there i said it, i’m selfish, on some keep my energy to myself sh+t
to be honest i dunno if i can help it
so selfish
i’m selfish
there i said it, i’m selfish, on some keep my energy to myself sh+t
to be honest i dunno if i can help it
