Alexis Tan Gervacio - Selfish Lyrics

I can't take a joke
That’s what I'm told
Too sensitive, defensive yeah
That's what I learned
I’ve been working to change that

So what if I'm the punchline?
It hurt but made you laugh bright
I'll learn to be the punchline
The sting will fade with time, right?

Was it so selfish?
Taking your happiness as mine
Took on your worries
Your hopes and dreams
Intertwined with mine

You call it selfish
I know it's wrong to expect return
I just can't help it
Don't I deserve some respect
I'm gеtting sick of scorn

I can't shut my mouth
When something don’t feel right
They say I should just takе it
Nod, don’t put up a fight
My fault if we fight
It's always "sorry"
The next day
Or no sorries
Just handshakes
Sorries the next day

If this is selfish
Want to allow myself to be
A bit more selfish
Stave off my guilt and my empathy

I know it’s selfish
Need a break
Just for today
To put myself first
So that tomorrow
I can take more of the same
