Selfish ft. Nic D Lyrics

I built a house to harbor myself in

I lock you out I know that I'm selfish

My mother told me

To follow my feet

But my legs feel weak can't help it

Said I'm doing fine I'm getting no sleep

Hold my breath every time the phone screen lights up

Praying it's your name that I'm gonna see

But it's not, starting to regret the cold feet I'm stuck

Try to tell myself I'm good without you but I'm really not

I been having trouble trying to tell you how I feel inside

Being by your side the only time i ever feel alive

Don't over exaggerate, you told me that a million times

Okay well maybe not a million times

But if we kept it going we could reach the sky

I played it safe, think I need a roof

Thought it could be me and you

But I couldn't see it through so

I built a house to harbor myself in

I lock you out I know that I'm selfish

My mother told me

To follow my feet

But my legs feel weak can't

I used to be your rock

Lately you been skipping stones, you don't wanna talk

I rather take the sticks and stones, hurts more than I thought

Guess I got some brittle bones, so now when you knock

Sorry baby isn't home

And maybe this time it's different yeah

Maybe the scale is tipping yeah

House got a well I could wish in yeah

So I make wishes

If I just wish then, I won't have to work for it

If I just get lucky I won't have to work for it

If I just get money I won't have to work for it

Right

In the mean time

I built a house to harbor myself in

I lock you out I know that I'm selfish

My mother told me

To follow my feet

But my legs feel weak can't help it

I built a house to harbor myself in

I lock you out I know that I'm selfish

My mother told me

To follow my feet

But my legs feel weak can't help it
