[elSicomoro]

If I seem to be ignoring you, don't take it personally.
Just because I'm not paying you some attention doesn't mean I'm some sort of uncaring asshole.
Assumption only makes YOU the ass.
I'm probably just in the zone...
Trying to get somewhere
Attempting to figure out the stupid controller on the game console
Thinking of something on a grand scale
Developing some easy money idea
Wishing I could conquer that asinine computer program

You see, the powers that be have been trying to weed the selfishness out of us for some time now.
Noble idea, but we can't quite rid ourselves of it
Otherwise we wind up being whores...always giving to others while abandoning ourselves
I'm just trying to find a comfort point
So that I can deal with you and me with little discomfort and ultimate ease

So if you wouldn't mind
Just allow me to be selfish for a little while
I'm just trying to find the equidistance between me and you.
And I'm sure our paths will cross again another day
