She was your last companion… like a Sister
Who became a Mother… who practised mothering
On her Mother… which is why she parents so well
For her Daughter… the circle of life
What can we say? You're punishing
The circle, the circle, the circle of life
When you burn all bridges, you're slashing down
The circle, the circle, the circle of life
She was an Interruption… she blamed everyone else
For her own behaviour, wouldn't look in the mirror
She'd had to burn all bridges down, without understanding
The damage being done to the circle of life
What can we say? You're punishing
The circle, the circle, the circle of life
When you burn all bridges, you're slashing down
The circle, the circle, the circle of life
