Selfish
Seeing only what you want to see
Makes a world in chaos
Look like a walk in the park
To over look the few with tears in their eyes
And only see the happy people keeps your life simple
But the one you over look may very well be you some day
Reaching out for a hand to catch you
A shoulder to cry on
Or someone to confide in
To find the one person to show you that
The world isn’t all bad
That someone can truly care about you
That you are worth saving
Wondering if you’re alone
Wondering if you’re the only one who feels the same
One sided crushes to afraid of the unknown
Playing it safe and hiding in the shadows
When you can be blind to the world with a perfect life
Who would care as long as you’re ok
As long as you can’t see it, it doesn’t exist
Right…?
To be so blind and selfish
