"Selfish Son" lyrics - 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

[Chorus:]
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
Taximeters, police sirens
This city is razed on borrowed time
I nearly lost you

[Chorus:]
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

[Outro:]
Selfish son (I can be cruel, I can be cruel to you)
Selfish brother (I can be cruel, I can be cruel to you)
Selfish child (I can be cruel, I can be cruel to you)
Selfish lover (I can be cruel, I can be cruel to you, my love)
