Center of the World
Dakona Lyrics

She took the money she stole the car keys
She committed theft by taking the money and stealing the car keys.

Told off the junkie at the liquor store
She had an altercation with a drug user at the liquor store.

Once again she said she got it
She claimed to understand the situation despite having been told multiple times before.

But she just don't get it
She doesn't really comprehend the situation and the consequences of her actions.

Got my arms wide open like I've done before
He is receptive to her once again despite past behavior.

A thousand times before
He has given her many chances to change her ways.

And I can't sleep tonight
He is worried and restless.

Not knowing if you're alright
He is concerned for her well-being.

And she has got to be the life of everything
She tries to be the center of attention in every situation.

And she's got nothing left but still she goes
Despite not having anything substantial, she still tries to put herself in the spotlight.

Do you ever know
He is curious about her true feelings and intentions.

I am waiting and it's so frustrating
Waiting for her to change is difficult and exasperating.

Cause you're never quite a happy girl
She is not content with her life despite attempts to attain happiness.

Your the center of the world
She places herself at the center of attention and importance.

And if there's one thing
There is one thing that worries him above all else.

One thing that scares me
This one thing frightens him greatly.

It's that I tend to see myself in you
He sees similarities between himself and her, possibly indicating a realization of his own flaws.

Don't see the picture my head's a blister
He has trouble understanding the situation and is confused or overwhelmed by his thoughts.

I live in slo-mo 'cause I like the view
Despite being aware of his own shortcomings, he is content with his life and perspective.

And she steals beauty from the face of sincerity
She takes something genuine and pure and corrupts it for her own purposes.

She takes everything
She is greedy and selfish, taking without concern for others.

She is not much more than just another pretty face
Despite her attractiveness, there is not much that sets her apart from others.

And still no peace awaits
Despite her actions, she has not found inner peace or contentment.
