Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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?
[Verse 2]
Don't look now
Just keep watching your TV
Hating what's to see
Waiting for someone to say something that's right
[Verse 3]
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?
[Verse 4]
Don't look now
Just keep watching your TV
Hating what's to see
Waiting for someone to say something that's right
