Selfish
It started off nice
Thought just like everyone else in my life
You were always there
Thought you were always around the corner when I needed your care
But I didn't know you were one
I'd have to argue with or walk away from
'Cause you were never there to protect me
That's just what you wanted everybody to see
Am I being selfish saying I want you to change
I hear you say that you want what's best
But can you hear my solemn detest
You told me my love for musics not real
Do you understand how that makes me feel
Just last week you said to my face
You don't want to hear of my failures or grace
I can't help but think, please tell me I'm wrong
But you don't love me just where my name belongs
Am I being selfish saying I want you to change
I think you try but don't what words to say
I wouldn't care if you made a mistake
Just being there would be enough for me
But you couldn't do that in a century
One call a week that all the I get
At least get that when you don't forget
Sometimes I wish that you would just stop
But when you do that my tears always drop
Am I being selfish saying I want you to change
Am I being selfish saying I want you to change
All that I want is you to say that you care is that too much to ask, Dad
Thought just like everyone else in my life
You were always there
Thought you were always around the corner when I needed your care
But I didn't know you were one
I'd have to argue with or walk away from
'Cause you were never there to protect me
That's just what you wanted everybody to see
Am I being selfish saying I want you to change
I hear you say that you want what's best
But can you hear my solemn detest
You told me my love for musics not real
Do you understand how that makes me feel
Just last week you said to my face
You don't want to hear of my failures or grace
I can't help but think, please tell me I'm wrong
But you don't love me just where my name belongs
Am I being selfish saying I want you to change
I think you try but don't what words to say
I wouldn't care if you made a mistake
Just being there would be enough for me
But you couldn't do that in a century
One call a week that all the I get
At least get that when you don't forget
Sometimes I wish that you would just stop
But when you do that my tears always drop
Am I being selfish saying I want you to change
Am I being selfish saying I want you to change
All that I want is you to say that you care is that too much to ask, Dad
