People only like to hear themselves talk. “Love, Selfish Love” addresses the flaw of oversharing in today’s society. Patrick believes the flaw to be entirely pointless, and perhaps a little selfish, a little self-serving.
Love, Selfish Love Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I hear you got your troubles, or so I've been told
Maybe just a couple, but I'm not quite sold
I'm indifferent to the difference 'tween tomorrow and today
Less an indiscretion than a lesson I've been paid
And the stages of recovery can signify your age
Like rings around a stump
Oh, that's something I know a little bit about, child
Lately it's been getting a little bit crazy
I don't wanna be complaining, complaining, oh
[Pre-Chorus]
All my friends go to bed dreaming up a reason they should weep, weep
And all my friends go to the ends of the earth for secrets they don't wanna keep
[Chorus]
Well, this is my confession:
Yes, yes
This is me confessin':
God bless the sad and selfish
Stay helpless
'Cause I've always been stronger than that
Hold the weight of the world on my back
It's just love, selfish love
Love, selfish love
[Post-Chorus]
I've got nothing to confess, yes
I've got nothing to confess, yes
I've got nothing to confess, yes
I've got nothing to confess, yes
[Verse 2]
It's too easy to be scared sometimes
I'm not gonna lie like I don't understand
But it's like the whole world is jumping off the bridge
And you don't want to be the one standing on dry land
[Pre-Chorus]
All my friends go to the ends of the earth for secrets they don't wanna keep
[Chorus]
Well this is my confession:
Yes, yes
This is me confessin' now:
God bless the sad and selfish
Stay helpless
'Cause I've always been stronger than that
Hold the weight of the world on my back
It's just love, selfish love
Love, selfish love
[Post-Chorus]
I've got nothing to confess, yes
I've got nothing to confess, yes
I've got nothing to confess, yes
I've got nothing to confess, yes
[Chorus] [x2]
Well this is my confession:
Yes, yes
This is me confessin' now:
God bless the sad and selfish
Stay helpless
Cause I've always been stronger than that
Hold the weight of the world on my back
It's just love, selfish love
Love, selfish love
[Post-Chorus]
I've got nothing to confess, yes
I've got nothing to confess, yes
I've got nothing to confess, yes
I've got nothing to confess, yes

I also have a song called “Love Selfish Love.” You know, a lot of people ask me why I don’t have a Twitter. It’s sad that people really go out of their way to tell everyone everything about themselves. Our country has verbal diarrhea. It’s really sad — there’s no mystery, no surprise. “Love Selfish...
