Spinning

(Lyrics, Music: Leitch)
Too many people for too many things
Can you wait up for me to catch you?
Too many people for too many things
Can you wait up for me, can you wait up for me?
Scatterbrain we hear the prophets speaking on their own behalf
with their crooked smiles for a little while
on temporary sacred ground to bruise the knees for those around
praying, saying what you knew could be was what you wouldn't see
How could the man in black and white wait up to say his grace
on speaking terms again, speaking up, falling down
on temporary sacred ground to bruise the knees for those around
praying, saying what you knew could be was what you wouldn't see
(Refrain)
Spinning faster to slow down
Build your house on sacred ground
Spinning faster to slow down
Waiting for you, waiting for me (2X)
As if you didn't know, it doesn't seem a bit surprising
A little less for more, you walk in the sunlight's early rising
repeating once, repeating twice to fall and fall and fall again
(Refrain)
The drink is slowing, the smoke is burning
The clock still ticking, the oceans flowing
The people looking, the rain still falling
The world still spinning faster to slow down
Too many people for too many things
Can you wait up for me?
Can you wait up for me?
Playing hide and seek again, try to catch me if you can
Sit and laugh with you at you, it never ends, it never wins
on temporary sacred ground to bruise the knees for those around
praying, saying what you knew could be was what you wouldn't see
Spin and tear this game to play
Spin and fall another day
(Refrain)
Too many people for too many things
Too many people for too many things
Can you wait up for me?
Can you wait up for me?
Spinning faster to slow down
Can you wait up for me?
Spinning faster to slow down
