Lyrics
|
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
|
(The picture's there)
|
The memory won't escape me
|
(But why should I care?)
|
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
|
(The picture's there)
|
The memory won't escape me
|
(But why should I care?)
|
There's a place so dark you can't see the end
|
Skies cock back and shock that which can't defend
|
The rain then sends dripping acidic questions
|
Forcefully, the power of suggestion
|
Then with the eyes shut looking through the rust and rot, and dust
|
A small spot of light floods the floor
|
And pours over the rusted world of pretend
|
And the eyes ease open and it's 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
|
(The picture's there)
|
The memory won't escape me
|
(But why should I care?)
|
In the memory you'll find me
|
Eyes burning up
|
The darkness holding me tightly
|
Until the sun rises up
|
Moving all around
|
Screaming of the ups and downs
|
Pollution manifested in perpetual sound
|
The wheels go 'round and the sunset creeps
|
Behind street lamps, chain-link, and concrete
|
A little piece of paper with a picture drawn
|
Floats on down the street 'til the wind is gone
|
And the memory now is like the picture was then
|
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
|
(The picture's there)
|
The memory won't escape me
|
(But why should I care?)
|
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
|
(The picture's there)
|
The memory won't escape me
|
(But why should I care?)
|
In the memory you'll find me
|
Eyes burning up
|
The darkness holding me tightly
|
Until the sun rises up
|
Now you got me caught in the act (7x)
|
You bring the thought back (7x)
|
Telling you that I see it right through you (7x)
|
In the memory you'll find me
|
Eyes burning up
|
The darkness holding me tightly
|
Until the sun rises up
|
In the memory you'll find me
|
Eyes burning up
|
The darkness holding me tightly
|
Until the sun rises up
|
