Giant Rooks Love Is A Selfish Thing Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I set my house on fire 'cause I don't really like what's inside
Pickin' up the pieces that I once used to call my mind (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
You said you won't let me forget ya
"Moments fade away," you always used to say
If I could, I would turn back the time back to the good old days
Repeatin' every mistake, I wanna tell you why
[Chorus]
Love is a selfish thing after all
Scream it at the ceilin' when you're alone
Oh, you never really carеd as I did
No, you never really carеd, but I did
[Post-Chorus]
Yeah, yeah
[Verse 2]
Now evilness is pourin' out of every pore
And I keep tryna hurt you just a little bit more
Fun to think we once were in love
'Cause that's all over now
Too many, too many lies (Still hopin' you'd call me tonight)
You said you won't let me forget ya
Lyin' all alone, quiet like a fuckin' stone
You might also like
How Have You Been?

[Chorus]
Love is a selfish thing after all
Scream it at the ceilin' when you're alone
Oh, you never really cared as I did
No, you never really cared, but I did
The sun comes up like she used to
And settles down like she used to
You're not around like you used to
I will wait, wait for you just like I used to
[Bridge]
Go scream it at the ceilin'
Go scream it at the ceilin'
I feel way better now I'm not with you
I feel way better now I'm not with you
Go scream it at the ceilin'
Go scream it at the ceilin'
I feel way better now I'm not with you
I feel way better now I'm not with you
Go scream it at the ceilin'
Go scream it at the ceilin'
I feel way better now I'm not with you
I feel way better now I'm not with you
[Chorus]
Love is a selfish thing after all
Scream it at the ceilin' when you're alone
Oh, you never really cared as I did
No, you never really cared, but I did
Eyes wide shut, long after four
Wish I didn't dream about you no more
Oh, you never really cared as I did
No, you never really cared, but I did
Giant Rooks Love Is A Selfish Thing Lyrics Meaning
The lyrics depict a narrative of profound emotional turmoil and the aftermath of a broken relationship. In the first verse, the act of setting the house on fire symbolizes a desire to rid oneself of painful memories and thoughts. Picking up the shattered pieces of the mind implies attempting to cope with the mental and emotional wreckage.
The recurring theme of wanting to turn back time and repeating mistakes reflects a longing for the past and an acknowledgment of personal shortcomings. The chorus boldly asserts that love, portrayed as a selfish force, is declared after experiencing heartache and solitude. The post-chorus emphasizes the emotional weight carried by the singer.
