is it selfish
if i told you
that i love you

is it selfish
'cause i know
i'm gonna leave you

and i could tell
by the look in your eyes
you know me so well
you know it when i lie

so when i say
i'm gonna stay
there's this silence
that suffocates
the two of us

and it's all my fault

i'm sorry

i should've ended it
before it even started
we both knew
our love had a time limit
but we still committed

so tell me
is it selfish
when i refuse to see
the towers breaking
the flowers that we've grown
through all these years withering
everything's changing

but i'm still selfish
as i was from the very beginning
