I might disintegrate into the thin air
If you'd like
I'm not the dark center of the universe
Like you thought
I might disintegrate into the thin air
If you'd like
I'm not the dark center of the universe
Like you thought
Well, it took a lot of work to be the ass that I am
And I'm real damn sure that anyone can
Equally easily fuck you over
Well, died sayin' something
But didn't mean it
Everyone's life ends
But no one ever completes it
Dry or wet ice, they both melt
And you're equally cheated
Well, it took a lot of work to be the ass that I am
And I'm really damn sure that anyone can
Equally easily fuck you over
Well, an endless ocean landin'
On an endless desert
Well, its funny as hell
But no one laughs when they get there
If you can't see the thin air than
Why the hell should you care?
Well, it took a lot of work to be the ass that I am
And I'm really damn sure that anyone can
Equally easily fuck you over
Well, I'm sure you'd tell me you got nothing to say
But our voices shook hands the other day
If you can't see the thin air
What the hell is in the way?
I might disintegrate into the thin air
If you'd like
I'm not the dark center of the universe
Like you thought
Well, it took a lot of work to be the ass that I am
And I'm real damn sure that anyone can
Equally easily fuck you over
Well, an endless ocean landin'
On an endless desert
Well, its funny as hell
But no one laughs when they get there
If you can't see the thin air than
Why the hell should you care?
Well, it took a lot of work to be the ass that I am
And I'm really damn sure that anyone can
Equally easily fuck you over
Well, God sayin' somethin'
But he didn't mean it
Everyone's life ends
But no one ever completes it
Dry or wet ice, they both melt
And you're equally cheated
Well, it took a lot of work to be the ass that I am
And I'm really damn sure that anyone can
Equally easily fuck you over
Well, sure you'll tell me you got nothin' to say
But our voices shook hands the other day
If you can't see the thin air then
What the hells in your way?
