About

As frontman Joe Talbot told Consequence of Sound:

“The Wheel” is about the cycle of alcoholism. My mom was an amazing mother and a wonderful friend, but she didn’t stop drinking until she died. I remember being about 10, on my knees crying and begging her to stop. I can call her a great mother all...

The Wheel Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I got on my knees
And I begged my mother
With a bottle in one hand
It's one or the other
And so it turns
Again and again

She woke from her slumber
With a crippled stance
She said she missed my brother
And wanted one more chance
And so it turns
Again and again

The wheel

[Pre-Chorus]
And so, it turns
And so, it turns

[Chorus]
Can I get a hallelujah?
The one from the back, now
Can I get a hallelujah?
Can I get a hallelujah?
I hear it from the back, now
Can I get a hallelujah?

Hey!

[Verse 2]
So, I put up a poster
Saying "where's my dog?"
"My friends, my family, my job?" (Hey!)

Nobody turnеd back now
Except for my man
With a mournful pious grin
And a bag in his hand
And so it turns
Again and again

And then the sеagulls found me
I couldn't tell what year
But with no one around me
The motion was clear
And so it turns
Again and again

The wheel

[Pre-Chorus]
And so it turns
And so it turns

[Chorus]
Can I get a hallelujah?
I hear it from the back now
Can I get a hallelujah?
Can I get a hallelujah
Hear it for the users?
Can I get a hallelujah?

[Outro]
Can I get a hallelujah?
Can I hear it from the back now?
Can I get a hallelujah?
Hey!

Can I get a hallelujah?
Can I get a hallelujah?
Can I get a hallelujah?
