Cap off kneeling at the
back of the church feel
the 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 knowing
nothing blowing
off the rest
And the riddles in the
pages leaving 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 a spiritual book
missed the beaches
from Nirvana and the
way that they look
And the crooks
they're on the island
They're killing to
keep earning they're
burning seven tons of
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
Yeah I watch
as your head
turns full circle
Yeah I watch
as your head
turns full circle
