From the top to the bottom Bottom to top I stop At the core I've forgotten In the middle of my thoughts Taken far from my safety Saw a light in the sky The sun won't escape me So why did I try From the top to the bottom Bottom to top I stop At the core I've forgotten In the middle of my thoughts Taken far from my safety Saw a light in the sky The sun won't escape me So why did I try From the thread to the needle Middle to end When skies cock back and shock that which couldn't defend The rain then sends dripping an acidic questions Forcefully the power of suggestion Then with the eyes tightly shut Looking through the rust and rot and dust A spot of light floods the floor And pours itself upon the world of pretend And the eyes ease open and its dark again From the top to the bottom Bottom to top I stop At the core I've forgotten In the middle of my thoughts Taken far from my safety Saw a light in the sky The sun won 't escape me So why did I try From the top to the bottom Bottom to top I stop At the core I've forgotten In the middle of my thoughts Taken far from my safety Saw a light in the sky The sun won't escape me So why did I try In a minute you'll find me Eyes burning up You say you'll never forgive me But the lies have piled up Moving all around Screaming of the ups and downs Pollution manifested in perpetual sound And as the wheels go round and the sunset creeps past the Street lamps cars chain-link and concrete A window then grows and catches the eye Cries out a yellow light as it passes it by A small black figure sits in front of a box Inside a box of rock with the needles on top Nothing stops in this land of the pain The sane lose not knowing they were part of the game And then the insides change The box stays the same The shame shovel up the pieces of the pain You can try to hide yourself in this world of pretend But when the paper's crumpled up it can't be perfect again From the top to the bottom Bottom to top I stop At the core I've forgotten In the middle of my thoughts Taken far from my safety Saw a light in the sky The sun won't escape me So why did I try From the top to the bottom Bottom to top I stop At the core I've forgotten In the middle of my thoughts Taken far from my safety Saw a light in the sky The sun won't escape me So why did I try In a minute you'll find me Eyes burning up You say you'll never forgive me But the lies have piled up Now I got you got in the act You better step back I'm telling you that I see it right through you Now I got you got in the act You better step back I'm telling you that I see it right through you Now I got you got in the act You better step back I'm telling you that I see it right through you Now I got you got in the act You better step back I'm telling you that I see it right through you Now I got you got in the act You better step back I'm telling you that I see it right through you NowI got you got in the act You better step back I'm telling you that I see it right through you Now I got you got in the act You better step back I'm telling you that I see it right through you Now I got you got in the act You better step back I'm telling you that I see it right through you In a minute you'll find me Eyes burning up You say you'll never forget me Until the lies has piled up In a minute you'll find me Eyes burning up You say you'll never forget me Until the lies has piled up
