NegativeNative - Too Selfish to See Lyrics




At their expense you step down
And consequence sneaks up
Like a snake trying to run home
It comes through the back door

The back of your head shakes and what for, what for?
A liar at best
The pressure in your chest bursts through the way everyone says

A liar at best everyone says
The whispers being heard
A sense of unsure, we're unsure
We'd like to know but if that's so

Why have we run so fast and said no?
Why do we run?
Why have I run so fast and said no?
Why do I run? Why do I run?

Running out of things to say
I've been chasing love
Reading into the things being said
Being the first to shove

And our self pity is eating us up
But we cant show it or let be seen
Sometimes we just gotta say the things we mean
We feel bitter. I want more

A liar at best is still knocking at my back door and what for? What for? What?

I keep to myself. I bottle things up
Eating my words is easier than speaking up
Learning to grow up inside a home, in which I was never taught "Figure it out alone"
The anger soaks my bones
Is it just Male testosterone or insecurities of my own?

I isolate myself. No matter how happy this place might be. And I cant see

I laugh at the floor. It's not good enough. And i find a way to make this about me
I laugh at the floor. I'm not good enough. And I'm too selfish to see

I'm too selfish to see the things I made but you are my escape, a place to keep me safe
And I just like your attention. But I'm done asking questions
To my pleasant surprise, I'm still laughing at the floor
