Selfish

Morning light and all my bags are packed I'm flying away, leaving this in the past I wish I could stay and do more to help But I can't anymore without losing myself And oh, I know it's hard to understand That I've done all that I can I know I'm being selfish but it's what I have to do Every tear you cry just makes it harder leaving you It's taking all my strength to write a brand new story Have to carry on and do the right thing for me So I'm sorry for being selfish I don't know just what lies ahead But I'd rather jump than be hanging by a thread I wish I could hold you and shield you from the pain But the weight coming down is more than I can take And oh, I know it's hard to understand That I've done all that I can I know I'm being selfish but it's what I have to do Every tear you cry just makes it harder leaving you It's taking all my strength to write a brand new story Have to carry on and do the right thing for me So I'm sorry for being selfish I know I'm being selfish but it's what I have to do Every tear you cry just makes it harder leaving you It's taking all my strength to write a brand new story Have to carry on and do the right thing for me So I'm sorry Yeah, I'm sorry For being selfish
