Selfish Heart
Have you ever come to a door
Standing open but double locked?
I don't want to go through that door again
Again
It leads you to an empty room
A smiling groom on a bed of roses
Pockets full of nothing but words
Empty words that leave you hollow
That promise you nothing, nothing but tears
You're not welcome if you're living here
You can't control it, just play your part
There's no love in a selfish heart
Once I had a vision of love it was so unreal that I could not feel it
Found that it was not enough for anyone
At all
Driven by compulsion and rage
This book of rules was made for fools
And if you ever turn that page better walk on by
Better pass on through coz they will
Play on your heart strings, prey on your fears
You're not welcome if you're living here
You can't control it, just play your part
There's no love in a selfish heart
You can't control it, just play your part
There's no love in a selfish heart
There's no beauty, there's no trust
There's no love in a selfish heart
Have you ever come to a door standing open
But double locked?
It promises nothing, nothing but tears
You're not welcome if you're living here
You can't control it, just play your part
There's no love in a selfish heart
You can't control it, just play your part
There's no love in a selfish heart
In a selfish heart, heart, heart
Standing open but double locked?
I don't want to go through that door again
Again
It leads you to an empty room
A smiling groom on a bed of roses
Pockets full of nothing but words
Empty words that leave you hollow
That promise you nothing, nothing but tears
You're not welcome if you're living here
You can't control it, just play your part
There's no love in a selfish heart
Once I had a vision of love it was so unreal that I could not feel it
Found that it was not enough for anyone
At all
Driven by compulsion and rage
This book of rules was made for fools
And if you ever turn that page better walk on by
Better pass on through coz they will
Play on your heart strings, prey on your fears
You're not welcome if you're living here
You can't control it, just play your part
There's no love in a selfish heart
You can't control it, just play your part
There's no love in a selfish heart
There's no beauty, there's no trust
There's no love in a selfish heart
Have you ever come to a door standing open
But double locked?
It promises nothing, nothing but tears
You're not welcome if you're living here
You can't control it, just play your part
There's no love in a selfish heart
You can't control it, just play your part
There's no love in a selfish heart
In a selfish heart, heart, heart
