"Selfish Hearts" lyrics

"Selfish Hearts"

When my eyes were truly open
It's so painfully obvious
You behave with no intention
Of meeting me in this place
I've just got to find, get back to being
The lost one that you mistake me for

You'll never find, you'll never find what you seek
In these selfish hearts
You'll never find, you'll never find what you seek
In these human hearts

When my mind ripped gently open
Pouring past cries out on the wind
You were there in body only
Clearly self-absorbed again
Puddle tears cleanse filthy streets
Soaked, shattered heart laid at your feet
It's clearly time to let go of the perfection
The perfection that I seek

You'll never find, you'll never find what you seek
In these selfish hearts
You'll never find, you'll never find what you seek
In these human hearts
You'll never find, you'll never find what you seek
In these selfish hearts
You'll never find, you'll never find what you seek
In these human hearts
