Paris Beach (Lyrics)

I stand my ground 'cause I know what's best for myself Don't waste your time trying to convince me otherwise You have to understand it yourself before you can judge me Or exercise superiority on me, self-righteous and lonely man I never really meant to hurt you I just feel like some truths need to be told In some ways you and I are similar but we won't admit it It's much better to draw a line and stand on either side Looking out for number one remains the best solution Now you pay the price for this selfish enterprise You're running out of cash Since you forgot to explain how you made your choices It's not enough or it's too much Your courtesy has become a stick we use to beat you up We never try, never talk about solutions We sit and smile Handshakes, goodbyes When all the feelings will come rushing back When we decide that we must take everything back Then we'll be able to be on the same track It's all in vain but try to be more forgiving
