Selfish Lyrics by AJ Evans

2019

I’ve been bad, done you wrong
Made my fair share of sins
Should’ve left long before
You had a chance to let me in
I was wrong, broke your heart
Without a reason
Think I’ve know from the start
I should’ve saved you from the feelings

I’m selfish
I can’t help it
When the world has dealt its cards
I have to protect my heart
I’m selfish
I can’t help it
It’s not you I wanted to hurt
But I had to save me first

Made mistakes all along
If I could turn back time
I’d correct what went wrong
I’d fix every crime
I’m sorry for the past
And all I put you through
I don’t expect forgiveness
After all I did to you

I’m selfish
I can’t help it
When the world has dealt its cards
I have to protect my heart
I’m selfish
I can’t help it
It’s not you I wanted to hurt
But I had to save me first

I’m selfish, its bad for you
‘Cause I look out for myself, that’s just what I do
I’m a mess, you must be too
‘Cause you looked in my eyes and you fell for the lies I told you

I’m selfish (yeah)
I can’t help it (I can’t help it)
When the world has dealt its cards
I have to protect my heart
I’m selfish
I can’t help it (yeah)
It’s not you I wanted to hurt (to hurt)
But I had to save me first
