Circle in the Dirt
Beneath the Sun and the burning sky
The higher you go the further you'll fly
Turning away with your private smile
Seemed you could see for a thousand miles
And while the World falls down around you
You shroud yourself in clouds of smoke
You drink a toast to those beside you
But your amity is like a private joke
Chorus:
You mark a circle in the dirt
Like you were tied to a tree
The same movie plays over again
With different actors in the scene
You thought you'd made a break
From the things that weigh you down
But if you dam a river
The water finds a way around.
Now you've got your own gravity
Your orbit fills up the room
We join you in your vanity
And sing with you out of tune
Chorus

The higher you go the further you'll fly
Turning away with your private smile
Seemed you could see for a thousand miles
And while the World falls down around you
You shroud yourself in clouds of smoke
You drink a toast to those beside you
But your amity is like a private joke
Chorus:
You mark a circle in the dirt
Like you were tied to a tree
The same movie plays over again
With different actors in the scene
You thought you'd made a break
From the things that weigh you down
But if you dam a river
The water finds a way around.
Now you've got your own gravity
Your orbit fills up the room
We join you in your vanity
And sing with you out of tune
