Full Circle

Cap off kneeling at the back of the church
Feeling water on your brow, and it heals and it hurts
At first a sharpish pain that returns as a thought
That the needle in your skin won't bring you closer to god

And i watch as your head turns full circle

All hopeless 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

And i watch as your head turns full circle

You got lost in your travels and a spiritual book
Mistook beaches for nirvana in the way that they look
And the crooks that run the island are 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?

And i watch as your head turns full circle

You appear even-tempered but 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

And i watch as your head turns full circle

And i watch as your head turns full circle

And i watch as your head turns full circle
