​selfish Lyrics by Leo Hainer

WATERFALLS

2015

[Verse 1]
You're lonely in bed tonight
No, you won't find me there waiting
So you better turn off your light
'Cause you never saw my heart breaking
Now as you try to put up a fight
I walked out the door, wasted
And the love that once was bright
Turned into a light that has faded

[Pre-Chorus]
Your touch makes me want to die
I don't think I'm strong enough
To pretend that I'm feeling alive
Your love doesn't always fill me up

[Chorus]
'Cause even when you hold me close
You're selfish in your ways
And when it's just the two of us
I keep looking for your gaze (I keep looking for your gaze)
'Cause baby you are toxic
And they warned me everyday (every single day)
But I choose to ignore the signs
And you took my life away

[Verse 2]
I'm home alone tonight
And my phone won't stop ringing
So I'd rather tell you a lie
Than to tell you that my soul's bleeding
'Cause the cupid hit me so hard
That I can't seem to love another
And it pains me to my core
That is you that my heart fell for

[Pre-Chorus]
Your touch makes me want to die
I don't think I'm strong enough
To pretend that I'm feeling alive
Your love doesn't always fill me up

[Chorus]
'Cause even when you hold me close
You're selfish in your ways
And when it's just the two of us
I keep looking for your gaze (I keep looking for your gaze)
'Cause baby you are toxic
And they warned me everyday (every single day)
But I choose to ignore the signs
And you took my life away
(You took my life away)

[Outro]
And you took my life away
(Every single day)
And you took my life away
And you took my life away
(Every single day, I keep looking for your gaze)
And you took my life away
