Think it’s time to admit a few things I’ve been feeling some way About the cynical man I’ve become Love can be such a difficult thing And the pain that it brings Can be confusing and leave you undone And I’m here, but I’m gone Just a space where I was So I think that I’m done But you should know that you did nothing wrong You maybe wondering why I seem cold I’m just being selfish, yeah, I’m on hold I need to be cruel to be kind And tell you what’s on my mind I need to be selfish I, I need to be selfish I need to be selfish So, tell me please that this all makes sense? Say that somehow this puts your mind at rest ‘Cause this isn’t me, who I wanna be I’d never act so indifferently But I can’t even say that I’m sorry That I’m here, but I’m gone Just a space where I was So I think that I’m done But you should know that you did nothing wrong You maybe wondering why I seem cold I’m just being selfish, yeah, I’m on hold I need to be cruel to be kind And tell you what’s on my mind I need to be selfish And it might be more than a minute that I need to take It would be wrong for me to ask you to sit and wait That would be selfish No it’s not like I’m calling this off for anybody else No other reason, I just need a moment to myself I need to be cruel to be kind I need to be cruel to be kind You maybe wondering why I seem cold I’m just being selfish, yeah, I’m on hold I need to be cruel to be kind And tell you what’s on my mind I need to be selfish I, I need to be selfish
