Selfish

Think it's time to admit a few things

I've been feeling some way

About the cynical man I've become

Love can be such a difficult thing

And the pain that it brings

Can be confusing and leave you undone

And I'm here, but I'm gone

Just a space where I was

So I think that I'm done

But you should know that you did nothing wrong

You maybe wondering why I seem cold

I'm just being selfish, yeah, I'm on hold

I need to be cruel to be kind

And tell you what's on my mind

I need to be selfish

I, I need to be selfish

I need to be selfish

So tell me please that this all makes sense

Say that somehow this puts your mind at rest

'Cause this isn't me, who I wanna be

I'd never act so indifferently

But I can't even say that I'm sorry

That I'm here, but I'm gone

Just a space where I was

So I think that I'm done

But you should know that you did nothing wrong

You maybe wondering why I seem cold

I'm just being selfish, yeah, I'm on hold

I need to be cruel to be kind

And tell you what's on my mind

I need to be selfish

And it might be more than a minute that I need to take

It would be wrong for me to ask you to sit and wait

That would be selfish

No, it's not like I'm calling this off for anybody else

No other reason, I just need a moment to myself

I need to be cruel to be kind

I need to be cruel to be kind

You maybe wondering why I seem cold

I'm just being selfish, yeah, I'm on hold

I need to be cruel to be kind

And tell you what's on my mind

I need to be selfish

I, I need to be selfish
