My love is selfish And I bet that yours is too What is this peculiar thing called truth My love is selfish And it cares not who it hurts It will cut you out to satisfy its thirst For the meaning of a ritual so habitualand cursed My love is selfish How it separates the earth It takes every shiny stone but leaves the dirt For the cowards in the corner who just don't know what they are worth They have been twisted by a hollow kind of pain I can see it in their eyes but I ignore it everyday Because my love is selfish And it remembers everything Like the first time it was moved enough to sing How it dangled on that stage just like a puppet on a string
