Selfish

This day seems to never go away
and I’m selfish
yet it stays the same
this is the laugh I thought you might get
I thought you might get over it
but I’m covered in dust
and I’m selfish
how many sails are on your ship
and which one is torn
I thought I might have been born
yet I’m selfish
never try again
you might not understand
if you try
your ship is broken inside
your sails are torn
you thought you were born
but you’re selfish
you might not understand
you’re selfish
you throw your shells into the sea
I guess you might be tired of me
cause I’m selfish
