lyrics

i think i've got down how to walk in a circle
how to look at the same things and take away nothing
i've been looking at you so long that i don't know what you look like
so i forgo my foresight because i know that's not right

straighter, straighter, secant lines
vaguer, vaguer, connect the lines
you make me feel like i'm tracing a sector
so i'll lighten the pressure until i pinpoint the center

dither, why can't i
break off, start a new line

there's more to me than seeing you seeing me
you're a crinkle, you're a smudge
you're a weakness and a strength
you're a tangent, you're a segment
you're the center and the contour
i'm just trying but i can't break it

i never said i'd want to feel like i'm good enough
to trace and place the shapes as they lay, as they lay, as they
i never, ever spun the wheel to see how it works
but poked my pointer in the spokes to stop it from whirling so
i never, ever, ever feel like i'm good enough
oh when, oh when will be the day when the circle breaks and makes new shapes
