[Verse 1]
There's not enough room in the word
To describe the distance I’d travel
How many steps from your bed
Before all these knots in my shoulders unravel
[Verse 2]
You can buy affection for gold
You can sell ideas for pounds and pence
There's much that's certain in this world
Love’s not obliged to make much sense
[Chorus]
That's what makes us spin
Where the world is thin
[Verse 3]
Down marble and sandstone halls
Into the room where you're somehow still living
The likеness creates its own light
A slicе of your spirit that won't give up giving
[Verse 4]
Some of us strive to achieve
Something that lives once we've moved on
Here's this beautiful death mask
Your signature and a crown of thorns
[Chorus]
That's what makes us spin
Where the world is thin
That's what makes us spin
Where the world is thin
[Bridge]
Engraved in copper, exposed in the dark room
Painted on canvas or cast in bronze
Caught forever in frames per second
Perched on the head like the snare of a song
[Chorus]
That’s what makes us spin
Where the world is thin
That’s what makes us spin
Where the world is thin
