[Intro]
[Verse 1]
The thought is eating at you
Like a rat that eats the whole heart
Walk the circle in the other direction then
Walk the circle in the other direction
[Verse 2]
The thought is eating at you
Like a rat that eats the whole heart
And the room you thought was haunted
Is just the room you re always in
Walk the circle in the other direction then
Walk the circle in the other direction
[Verse 3]
The thought is eating at you
Like a rat that eats the whole heart
Allow your universe to grow smaller and smaller
Allow the lantern to burn low
And always be trying to balance a fading dream
On top of a newfound love and
Always be walking barefoot along the hollow
Walk the circle in the other direction then
Walk the circle in the other direction
[Verse 4]
We sit and stare at a grain of sand
And then we wanna, wanna touch the glass
And then we reach out to touch the pearl
Everyone is always on with the world
And a hand draws a picture of a hand
And that hand draws a picture of a hand
And that hand draws a picture of a hand
And that hand draws a picture of a hand
[Verse 5]
The thought is eating at you
Like a rat that eats the whole heart
Wouldn t it be wonderful to not have to turn to stone?
Maybe life is just a painting on the wall in the dark
In a house that we have chosen not to go to
Oh, be a bitter bark peeling hard off the arbutus
Oh, baby, let your worries be that thing
[Outro]
Then walk the circle in the other direction
Then walk the circle in the other direction
Then walk the circle in the other direction
Then walk the circle in the other direction
Then walk the circle in the other direction
Then walk the circle in the other direction
Then walk the circle in the other direction
Then walk the circle in the other direction
Then walk the circle in the other direction
Then walk the circle in the other direction
Then walk the circle in the other direction
(The thought is eating at you)
(Like a rat that eats the whole heart)
