[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
