Selfish

I can see everyone suffering around me

The world I live in is a world of pain

No one is spared, there’s hurt everyday

I wish so much to get away

 

I can’t escape my own trouble in the first place

I’ve grown a habit of passing the blame

Nothing’s my fault, nothing can be

 

If you’re sick, close to dying, why don’t I care

That just means you’re no longer restraining me

If you’re having a hard time getting your air

Nothing is my fault, nothing can be

 

My pain is more, takes all my attention

You’re insignificant compared

Even though I hate how selfish I’ve become

It’s not my fault I don’t care

 

My mom hurts all the time because of me

Shattered her dreams for me and threw away

Everything she taught me and she thinks I’m going straight

To hell and that I’ve gone insane

 

Two uncles in the hospital and I don’t give a damn

I never realized I was quite so heartless before

But I guess that’s how it goes when you spend your life

Crying because it hurts to be right

 

I can’t escape my own trouble in the first place

I’ve grown a habit of passing the blame

Nothing’s my fault, nothing can be

 

If you’re sick, close to dying, why don’t I care

That just means you’re no longer restraining me

If you’re having a hard time getting your air

Nothing is my fault, nothing can be

 

My pain is more, takes all my attention

You’re insignificant compared

Even though I hate how selfish I’ve become

It’s not my fault I don’t care
