Selfish Man Songtext / Lyric

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 showed me I have never really loved no one but me

Like the time, you slipped through my hand

I'll never understand why I'm such a selfish man






Walk around me, not before me, I'll pretend not to ignore you

But I'll compromise if I realize you can do something for me

I'm ugly and you know it, but you think though 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 showed me I have never really loved no one but me

Like the time, you slipped through my hand

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



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
