I Am Selfish.

I lie.

I steal.

I use.

I am selfish.

Every fiber of my being cares about one thing.

I choose to be alone so they don't slow me down.

I lie.

I steal.

I use.

All to get what my heart desires.

When I move on it starts all over again.

Because I'm a selfish human being.

I lie.

I steal.

I use.

I tell him the things he wants to hear.

Why can't I just let things go.

That way I can mean what I say.

I lie. 

I steal.

I use.

I'll tell you why.

I'm selfish.

The world would be better off without people like me. 

We lie.

We steal.

We use.

Hopefully one day it ends.

The selfishness gone.

Not because it hurts other people.

I lie.

I steal.

I use.

Only because it hurts me.

I'll get better I promise.

I am selfish.

I lie. 

I steal.

I use.
