Dark Center of the Universe Lyrics

Well I might
Disintegrate into the thin air if you like
And 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 pretty damn sure that anyone can
Easily, equally f**k ya...

    I think this song is just a pessimistic view on life, including lines such as "it's funny as hell but no one laughs when they get there" and "anyone can easily equally f*** you over." The songwriter was probably having an awful day, and was venting his anger at life, at the world, at anyone who stood in his way. He's not the dark center of the universe, which I believe means he wasn't put in this universe just to be picked on and for people to treat him like crap.
