Narcissus Lyrics

Dear momma's boy I know you've had your butt licked by your mother I know you've enjoyed all that attention from her And every woman graced with your presence after
Dear narcissus boy I know you've never really apologized for anything I know you've never really taken responsibility I know you've never really listened to a woman
Dear me, show boy I know you're not really into conflict resolution Or seeing both sides of every equation Or having an uninterrupted conversation
And any talk of healthiness And any talk of connectedness And any talk of resolving this Leaves you running for the door
Why, why do I try to love you? Try to love you when you really don't want me to Why, why do I try to love you? Try to love you when you really don't want me to
Dear egotist boy You've never really had to suffer any consequence You've never stayed with anyone longer than ten minutes You'd never understand anyone showing resistance
Dear popular boy I know you're used to getting everything so easily A stranger to the concept of reciprocity People honor boys like you in this society
And any talk of selflessness And any talk of working at this And any talk of being of service Leaves you running for the door
Why, why do I try to help you? Try to help you when you really don't want me to Why, why do I try to help you? Try to help you when you really don't want me to
You go back to the women who will dance the dance And you go back to your friends who will lick your ass And you go back to ignoring all the rest of us And you go back to the center of your universe
Dear self-centered boy I don't know why I still feel affected by you I've never lasted very long with someone like you I never did although I have to admit I wanted to
Dear magnetic boy You've never been with anyone who doesn't take your shit You've never been with anyone who's dared to call you on it I wonder how you'd be if someone were to call you on it
And any talk of willingness And any talk of both feet in And any talk of commitment Leaves you running for the door
Why, why do I try to change you try to Try to change you when you really don't want me to Why, why do I try to change you try to Try to change you when you really don't want me to
You go back to the women who will dance the dance And you go back to your friends who will lick your ass And you go back to being so oblivious And you go back to the center of the universe
