selfish
Selfish
Am i selfish for wanting someone to love me the way i love them
To go and check up on me daily
To fall in love so early
Talk to day and night
To just take one look at me and get instant happiness
But they will never once feel the hurt of rejection and isolation
They will never understand what it's like to have your heart breaking because you know you’re not the one making them smile
Never once will you know what it's like to stay up all night thinking all the what ifs in the world
What if they stayed
What if i said this
What if i did this
What if i did nothing at all
What if i told them my pain
Would they run away
Or stay and try to take it make ok
What if i never felt this pain
Am i selfish for wishing one day they will feel my pain and hurt
Am i selfish for wanting you to live a day in my life
Am i selfish for wanting change
Am i selfish if i say i don’t feel okay
Am i selfish if i don’t want to smile all the time
Am i selfish for waiting for an apology
Am i selfish for wishing you never came
Am i selfish if i don’t want to stay
Because truth is i feel selfish
I feel selfish for not wanting to live another day
