Moral Centralia

You are weak, I am strong, and
I've done nothing but lead you on, she said

Drove around all night, stoplights were interminable
But I get along all right as long I don't have to interact
With anyone else on a meaningful level, I'll be fine
Because I don't want to marry my convictions (not right now)

When wicked thoughts come inter alia
You wind up in Centralia; morally
Looking for a decent cup of coffee
And try to meet halfway
It seems like I'm stealing your words
But really, I'm just giving them back to you
Once again, it's all about me
And pride is not a factor, no
Once again, it's all about me

You are weak, I am strong, and
I've done nothing but lead you on, she said

Feeling well into my cups already
Just until my hands are steady
The spins are setting in
I swear I'll never never feel like myself again
I'd like to go back ten years
And show you a picture of yourself now
But I'm afraid that it might kill you then
You used to be such a loyal friend

Once again, it's all about me
And pride is not a factor, no
Once again, it's all about me
Then done by an inner-monologue
Once again, it's all about me
