Selfish

I built a house to harbor myself in I lock you out I know that I'm selfish My mother told me To follow my feet But my legs feel weak can't help it Said I'm doing fine I'm getting no sleep Hold my breath every time the phone screen lights up Praying it's your name that I'm gonna see But it's not, starting to regret the cold feet I'm stuck Try to tell myself I'm good without you but I'm really not I been having trouble trying to tell you how I feel inside Being by your side the only time i ever feel alive Don't over exaggerate, you told me that a million times Okay well maybe not a million times But if we kept it going we could reach the sky I played it safe, think I need a roof Thought it could be me and you But I couldn't see it through so I built a house to harbor myself in I lock you out I know that I'm selfish My mother told me To follow my feet But my legs feel weak can't I used to be your rock Lately you been skipping stones, you don't wanna talk I rather take the sticks and stones, hurts more than I thought Guess I got some brittle bones, so now when you knock Sorry baby isn't home And maybe this time it's different yeah Maybe the scale is tipping yeah House got a well I could wish in yeah So I make wishes If I just wish then, I won't have to work for it If I just get lucky I won't have to work for it If I just get money I won't have to work for it Right In the mean time I built a house to harbor myself in I lock you out I know that I'm selfish My mother told me To follow my feet But my legs feel weak can't help it I built a house to harbor myself in I lock you out I know that I'm selfish My mother told me To follow my feet But my legs feel weak can't help it --- Selfish - Connor Price and Nic D
