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 won't bring you closer to God
And I watch as your head turns full circle
All hopless with old 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
You got lost in your travels and a spiritual book
Mistook the beaches for nirvana in the way that they look
And the crooks that run the island
They're killin' to keep earning
They're burning seven tons of plastic and it seems to working
Is that the best that I can do?
So 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 heard 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
Yeah, I watch as your head turns full circle
Yeah, I watch as your head turns full circle
