Selfish Son - Bloc Party

I took it too far
I took it too far
again
Cut me down
I took it too far
I took it too far again
On the Lower East
Side

I took it too far
I took it too far
again
Night bleeds into
day
I took it too far I took it too far
again
I nearly lost you

I can be cruel
I can be cruel to
you
I can be cruel
I can be cruel to
you, my love

Typical me
Typical Libra
Spit the dummy
Typical me
Typical Libra
The grass is always green

This city is razed on
borrowed time
Taxi meters, police
sirens
This city is razed on
borrowed time I nearly lost you

I can be cruel
I can be cruel to
you
I can be cruel
I can be cruel to
you I can be cruel
I can be cruel to
you
I can be cruel
I can be cruel to
you, my love

Selfish son
Selfish brother
Selfish child
Selfish lover
