Center of The Universe
This boy he clutches minutes
in his greedy little fingers
all the day long
But he drops them through his pocket holes
The fall like ethereal dominoes
when he's alone
Silver they fall and disappear
Drops to mist
Stones to dust
Sand to glass
He says, "There's nothing to save, nothing that lasts.
No one succeeds, and
no one's to blame."
That's probably real as the wind on his face
but it's not what he believes
it's not the same
Like fire burns and razors cut
Glass will break
Water makes wet
And "I am"
So he thinks, "Maybe Now, when Later, it will
be just the same"
We can live it new and see it again --
See it all again
Like old times you don't recall
It's like a familiar face on an age-old child
And he knows one thing for sure:
Do it now
He won’t believe what he knows
He won’t believe
He won't believe
He won't believe
in his greedy little fingers
all the day long
But he drops them through his pocket holes
The fall like ethereal dominoes
when he's alone
Silver they fall and disappear
Drops to mist
Stones to dust
Sand to glass
He says, "There's nothing to save, nothing that lasts.
No one succeeds, and
no one's to blame."
That's probably real as the wind on his face
but it's not what he believes
it's not the same
Like fire burns and razors cut

be just the same"
We can live it new and see it again --
See it all again
Like old times you don't recall
It's like a familiar face on an age-old child
And he knows one thing for sure:
Do it now
He won’t believe what he knows
He won’t believe
He won't believe
He won't believe
