Did you always think of yourself? Oh my love,
Did you notice when she needed your help,
The depths of my soul jeer.
An I pray that we can come back from this,
An I can't fix my mistakes, but I can love you.
Do you care now when I'm not around, I hope you do.
I tried to tell you but no words came out of my mouth.
Call me again when you have the time, cause I'm tired of being alone,
if you tell me to forget then I swear I'll try, try to make another place my home.
And of all these things I've done, trying to make confidence.
I really loved you more than you thought.
Of all these things I've done, trying to give you confidence wasn't one.
I really loved you more than you thought.
I show that now.
When they built the world they tore the whole thing down, fed up of love it's so negative,
I can't defend this cause my face looks out for the same old love, the same old love.
