Selfish Song.

some things we don't talk about
it's a wordless speech we've come to know
and some things we do without
a dinner dress and a black tie show
we're grateful for what we have
don't focus on the bad
anyhow

so some things we don't sing about
it's a selfish song you've heard before
and lonely nights don't hurt as bad
if you hold a smile til you shut the door
and another days been beat
if you get your eyes to sleep
anyhow

dim light by the empty pool
it was a starless night in a vase of blooms
you cried for her and i cried for you
held you close, what else to do
we're grateful for what we have
don't focus on the bad
anyhow

so some things we don't talk about
it's a wordless speech we've come to know
and lonely nights don't hurt as bad
if you hold a simile till the lighting goes
and another days been beat
if you get your eyes to sleep
anyhow
