Real Instruments - The Bookwright

Starting at the end's beginning
With a golden idol painted white
In the desert at the edge of time
Waiting for something

I wonder if you even hear me
From the bottom of a wishing well
Or was it just a well of charm?
I'm forgetting the where and why

Ending at the start's beginning
Boy you better wipe away that smile
Unless you really want to fuck this up
There's a lot of people watching now

Expecting what they know won't happen
Like throwing pennies in a wishing well
Except there's only ever just one side
In a circle...

Beginning where the end is starting
Now I know we've really lost the plot
Better blow it up and burn it down
Try to conjure the smoke rings

I need to stop my mind from thinking
Because I know it's gonna mess me up
And I really want to wish you well
But you know I'm always on the clock

Try to start a new beginning
Wrap it up and keep the ending tight
Or they won't ever give a shit about
The books you write...
