Circle of Light

Lyrics

standing just outside
 the circle of light
 avoiding the pool cues
 watching the game
 waiting for you
 hanging in the doorway
 like smoke
 like mistletoe
 this is where i'll be
 whenever you come or go
 i'm gonna roll you over
 gonna peel you back
 expose your tender center
 watch the juices flow from the crack
 gonna peel you out
 of your protective shell
 or i might have to break right in there
 and raise some hell
 i don't have no grand plan
 for you and me
 just nothing is impossible
 nothing is unlikely
 i'm just riding the tide
 nothing more
 and it's bound to take me out some
 before it brings me back to shore
 when you look in the mirror
 do you see visions of your past
 i ain't got time for halfway
 i ain't got time for halfassed
 when i look in the mirror
 i see my days to come
 and my face is just a trace
 of where i'm coming from
 just outside the circle of light
 is where you've been living
 your whole life
 you've got to jump into the center
 and launch your attack
 and then you've got to crawl back
 in the corners
 where it's really black
