THE CLASSIC CRIME LYRICS

"Selfish"

Life goes on from the dusk to the dawn
From old song to new song
And you find yourself on the path you don't want to be on
I sing songs I don't like
To strangers every night
They don't know me at all and it's wrong

Sometimes I wish I never quit smoking
I had meaningful conversations back then
Don't think I'll ever stop drinking because of that
So fill your cup and spill your guts this second's all we have

And if the tears come you should own them
You should wear each one with pride?
Cause I've been praying for so long
They would roll down from my own eyes
Everyday I try to look at the bright side

I guess that I'm selfish for thinking about myself

Time stops, a husband is taken
A two week old infant, with no father to raise him
Watch him become a man
And the worst of my struggles seem to slip through my hands
So mother would you take this advice?
There are some of us here who would like you to cry

And if the tears come could you own them
Could you wear each one with pride?
Cause we've been praying for so long
They would roll down from our own eyes
Everyday I try to look at the bright side

I guess that I'm selfish for thinking about myself
I guess that I'm selfish for thinking about myself
Yeah, I guess that I'm selfish for thinking about myself
