Cap off kneelin' at the back of the church
Feelin' water on your brow
With it's heal 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 old coffee and a medical text
It's too easy knowin' nothin'
blowin' off the rest
And the riddles in the pages leavin' 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
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?
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 with 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
Yeah I watch
As your head
Turns full circle
Yeah I watch
As your head
Turns full circle
