Selfish

You play my heart like I play my guitar
Break all the strings 'cause I play way too hard
As fake as it sounds, it was real from the start
Passion is everything until it's not

I could tell it was downhill from here
I reversed engineered a plan out of my fears
They grew strong (way too strong)
I'll hold on (not for long)
Was surprised this ain't where I belong

Growing distant, you could tell
I hate sleeping by myself
Is it selfish? I can't help it
Slowing drifting miles apart
Save yourself I'm crashing hard
Call it selfish, I can't help it

I lie awake in my bed 'til it's dawn
It didn't get easier, guess I was wrong
Scared to let go of what's already gone
Passion is everything until it's not

I could tell it was downhill from here
I look back on the years, you held back
But your tears were too strong (way too strong)
I'll hold on (not for long)
Was surprised this ain't where I belong

Growing distant, you could tell
I hate sleeping by myself
Is it selfish? I can't help it
Slowing drifting miles apart
Save yourself I'm crashing hard
Call it selfish, I can't help it
