Selfish Man - Flogging Molly
Written by:Flogging Molly
I don't eat I just devour
Everyone in every hour
All is me
Is all I need and that's all that I care
Propelled through all this madness
By your beauty and my sadness
I'll never change or rearrange
'Till I've finished what I've started
And life leads me here
It shows me
I have never really loved no one but me
Like the time
You slipped through my hands
I'll never understand
Why I'm such a selfish man
Walk around me not before me
I'll pretend not to ignore ye
But I'll compromise if I realize you can do something for me
I'm ugly and you know it
But you think that I'm a poet
So I'll keep the rhyme if I feel in time
It gets me where I'm going
And life leads me here
It shows me
I have never really loved no one but me
Like the time
You slipped through my hands
And I'll never understand
No I'll never understand
Why I'm such a selfish man
All I heard was an unearthly silence
Apart from the violence
Explode in my head
Where all at once was this moment of beauty
No more since it slew me
No never again again again
Hey
Hey
Hey
Hey
Hey
Hey
No I'll never understand
No I'll never understand
Why I'm such a selfish man
Selfish man
Selfish man
Selfish man
Selfish man
Selfish man
Oh yeyeyeyeye
Yeyeyeyeyeye
Yeyeyeyeye
Ye
