[Verse 1] How do you square the circle? With chalk on a stone-cold floor How can I thread the needle? When my hands keep shaking more I drew lines on the table You laughed and moved the plate I thought I’d make it simple But simple’s always late [Pre-Chorus] Still I’m reaching for it Still I’m reaching through One sharp point of truth And a loop that won’t stay through [Chorus] Square the circle Say it again Square the circle Break and begin Thread the needle Through my skin Thread the needle Let the light in [Verse 2] There’s a seam in the morning Where your face used to be I tie knots in my trouble You untie them for me I don’t need a straight road I just need your hand If the shape won’t fit the box Then make me understand [Pre-Chorus] Still I’m reaching for it Still I’m reaching through One sharp point of truth And a loop that won’t stay through [Chorus] Square the circle Say it again Square the circle Break and begin Thread the needle Through my skin Thread the needle Let the light in [Bridge] If the answer is impossible Then I’ll live inside the try Little by little I can learn how to bend the line [Final Chorus] Square the circle Say it again Square the circle Break and begin Thread the needle Through my skin Thread the needle Let the light in
