The Final Act Of Selfishness

A leap of faith gone wrong
Another unfinished song
I write the words you never want to hear
A photograph that's faded
Lost time appreciated
Remembering I used to hold you near

But you're never next to me
Here's your body
Where's your mind
Bring it back

You need more
Always something else
It's why you're by yourself
It's what you asked for
It's why you're all alone
And so am I

You want more
Always something better
Not satisfied together
It's what you wanted
It's why you're all alone
It's why you're all alone and so am I

A deep secret that's uncovered
Another tragedy discovered
I act the scene that you never want to see
A door that's never opened
Another heart that's been broken
Remembering you used to cry to me

But you never cry to me
Here's your tears
Where's you're body
Bring it back

You need more
Always something else
It's why you're by yourself
It's what you asked for
It's why you're all alone
And so am I

You want more
Always something better
Not satisfied together
It's what you wanted
It's why you're all alone
It's why you're all alone and so am I

The portrait that you painted
Hides underlying hatred
I can see right through this charade
The smile on your face
Is tainted with disgrace
I can see right through this game you play

Remembering I used to hold you
Remembering you used to cry to me
Here's the memories
Where's the caring
Go away
