Stuart Price - The Wheel (Is Turning Now) lyrics

[Verse 1] He held my hand when I died He told me all I could ask The politician bleats so blind With his hard hat on rotating in a circle Gimme some rosacea, nicotine to stain ya Boys on the altar waiting to be crushed [Pre Chorus] (You wanna know) But as he takes the stage I'm gone (You wanna know) Oh, what the hell is all this? [Chorus] Oh, is it in the way he calls your name? Or is it in the way he prays for rain? The wheel is turning now It's really turning now [Break] Bone, to the blade My letter, white feather, no halves "Dread," that's what the devil said My prison, my prison, my guard [Verse 2] He laid his hands upon me He took ahold of my life The terror and the old blood screech When you mix those colours something's gonna happen I don't wanna see them, I don't wanna know them I spasm on the floor and wait for it to end [Pre Chorus] (You wanna know) But as he throws the crutches down (You wanna know) Eleven thousand knees bent let them know you're coming [Chorus] Oh, is it in the way he calls your name? Or is it in the way he makes you pray? The wheel is turning now It's really turning now [Breakdown] Do you wanna know how far you've come? Do you have any idea? Do you have any ideas?
