Egotistical
EGOTISTICAL
"I love you too much
To fight you
So I'm setting you free
So you can fly happy
Never wanted quit
I must admit
That this relationship
Had an ego trip
The turbulence
Was too often
It kept shaking my heart
I'd rather keep it intact
Than have it fall apart
For all the wrong we did
Glad to let go
Time we kill this
The lying Ego
We use to care
Show concern
If we'd only stop
Give love a turn
But we blew it up
A forrest fire now burns
All we do is accuse
And take turns
While this ego
Wiggle like worms
Killing us both
Soon you and I
In urns
So I had to stop
I had the desire to learn
Broke up with ego
Cause my heart still yearns
I love you too much
To fight you
So I'm setting you free
So you can fly happy
Never wanted to quit
I must admit
This relationship
Had an ego trip
No one wins
But ego will ride
Every wave or storm
It never hides
But shakes the ship
And watch the fight
Who won the war
The battle was tight
Put our souls at risk
Did we ever ask why
Tsunamis were better
Floods real high
Destroying the years
Silencing the cries
Of a love
That was a natural high
Ever wonder why
We didn't try,
We tell ourselves
Pretty little lies
I love you too much
To fight you
So I'm setting you free
So you can fly happy
Never wanted to quit
I must admit
This relationship
Had an ego trip
Unwilling to change
This illusion of control
Like the hunger games
Kills the soul
Causing emotional pain,
Giving ego lava
Sending hot rain
Crumble like cassava
We both lose
Love was the aim
But we invited ego
The relationship can't tame
I love you too much
To fight you
So I'm setting you free
So you can fly happy
Never wanted to quit
I must admit
This relationship
Had an ego trip"
