Cap off kneeling at the back of the church, Feeling water on your brow, if it’s healing it hurts At first a sharpish pain that returns as a thought That the needle in your skin will bring you closer to god
And I watch as your head turns full circle
Our hope was with a coffee and a medical text It’s too easy knowin’ nothing blowing off the rest And the riddles in the pages leave at too much to guess And the worry cracks a fracture from your hip to your chest
As I watch as your head turns full circle
We got lost in the travels in the spiritual book Missed the beaches from nirvana and the way that they look And the crooks they’re on the island they’re killin’ to keep runnin' They’re running severance on the plastic and it seems to be working
Is that the best that I can do? As I watch as your head turns full circle
You appear even tempered though your looks will deceive And the sparks are always flying cause you drink for relief With the heart of a child and the wit of a fool It’s a wonder why I don’t try to build a wall around you
When I watch as your head turns full circle And I watch as your head turns full circle Yeah I watch as your head turns full circle
