Lyrics

Verse 1

You take and take and never give back

Borrowed my light till the room went black

Talked over me when I tried to speak

Left me hollow for your own weak streak

Pre-Chorus

I kept quiet while you roared

Built my walls while you ignored

Chorus

You are selfish

You only see your own reflection

You are selfish

Every word is your direction

And I'm done carrying the weight of you

Post-Chorus

Selfish selfish selfish

(You are selfish)

Selfish selfish selfish

Verse 2

Your story always has you as the star

I was just a stage hand playing from afar

Gave you my weekends gave you my sleep

You took the crown while I was in too deep

Pre-Chorus

I kept quiet while you roared

Built my walls while you ignored

Chorus

You are selfish

You only see your own reflection

You are selfish

Every word is your direction

And I'm done carrying the weight of you

Bridge

I'm not your mirror anymore

Not your audience not your door

I'm walking out I'm slamming shut

The door you always left so shut

Chorus

You are selfish

You only see your own reflection

You are selfish

Every word is your direction

And I'm done carrying the weight of you

Drop

Selfish

Selfish

You are selfish

Yeah
