Built To Spill - Center Of The Universe Lyrics

Built To Spill Lyrics

"Center Of The Universe"

I heard what I said to you
And it was so out of sync
With the way I wanted to
Make myself out to seem

I don't like this air
But that doesn't mean I'll stop breathing it
Who doesn't think they're at
The center of the universe, being it

Don't look now
Just keep watching the TV
Hating what's to see
Waiting for someone to say something that's right

I heard what I said to you
Thought it was all understood
But I wasn't getting through
I'd go on if I could

I don't like this air
But that doesn't mean I'll stop breathing it
Who doesn't think they're at
The center of the universe, being it

Don't look now
Just keep watching the TV
Hating what's to see
Waiting for someone to say something that's right
