Selfish
This lyric is about the disease of addiction and how you become so selfish because of it. I know people that would rather sleep in the woods in a tent and get high all the time and try to get themselves help. They don't care about their family or their friends or their wife or husband girlfriend boyfriend, all they care about is themselves and getting high one more day. They'll go to any lengths to do this, by lying, stealing, or selling things that are worth money to a pawn shop. I've done all these things, and I only have one yet, and that's sleeping in a tent in the woods. I've been homeless sort of, when I was thrown out of my apartment, but I got to stay on people's couches. All of this because I was selfish and didn't care about anyone but myself.

Wunschliste
It's 7:30 p.m., again
I'm in for the night, time to zip up my house
Got me a spot down by the river
It's breezy, and helps keep the bugs out
I'm here by choice
Cuz I gave up everything
I gave it away freely
For my love of just one thing
I Got a disease
It's a lack of ease
I need some help
To keep me from myself
I came to in the morning
I noticed I have a neighbor
I should go ask him
If you can get party favors
He says first we got to do some boosting
Cuz I got no cash
Or find something to trade
In someone's trash
I Got a disease
It's a lack of ease
I need some help
To keep me from myself
I got a disease
It doesn't get any worse than this
I got a disease
That's so fucking selfish
I zip open my house
After a hard luck day
And say what I always say
There's got to be a better way
I Got a disease
It's a lack of ease
I need some help
To keep me from myself
I got a disease
It doesn't get any worse than this
I got a disease
That's so fucking selfish
