Ballad Of An Unrequited Self-Love Affair
It's such a complicated situation
it always ends up in a fight
what I wouldn't give for some isolation
but I'm gonna stay with me tonight
I catch my gaze across the bedroom
we only need some time alone
lost in a haze of self indulgence
oh what's indulgence on your own?
it's an unrequited self love affair and it's not fair
I need to be there for myself but I'm not there
I am a danger to myself, let alone anyone else
I am a danger to myself, oh oh oh
I've such a needless need for vindication
I've gotta show myself you see
if only for stealing all the covers
and for taking advantage of me
I like to tell myself "I love you"
even if from behind grinding teeth
sometimes I'm sure I half believe it
am I getting the better of me
it's an unrequited self love affair and it's not fair
I need to be there for my self but I'm not there
I am a danger to myself let alone anyone else
I am a danger to my self oh oh oh
it's an unrequited self love affair and it's not fair
I need to be there for myself but I'm not there
it always ends up in a fight
what I wouldn't give for some isolation
but I'm gonna stay with me tonight
I catch my gaze across the bedroom
we only need some time alone
lost in a haze of self indulgence
oh what's indulgence on your own?
it's an unrequited self love affair and it's not fair
I need to be there for myself but I'm not there
I am a danger to myself, let alone anyone else
I am a danger to myself, oh oh oh
I've such a needless need for vindication
I've gotta show myself you see
if only for stealing all the covers
and for taking advantage of me
I like to tell myself "I love you"
even if from behind grinding teeth
sometimes I'm sure I half believe it
am I getting the better of me
it's an unrequited self love affair and it's not fair
I need to be there for my self but I'm not there
I am a danger to myself let alone anyone else
I am a danger to my self oh oh oh
it's an unrequited self love affair and it's not fair
I need to be there for myself but I'm not there
