From the top to the bottom
   Bottom to top I stop
   At the core of the rotton
   Stop and just what I thought
   The sun has escaped us
   So I'm bright in the sky
   And I'm far from rapist
   Look at why did try (2x)
  
   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 acidic questions
   Forcefully, the power of suggestion
   Then with the eyes tightly shut looking thought the rust and rotten dust
   A spot of light floods the floor
   And pours itself upon a world of pretend
   Then the eyes ease open and its dark again
  
   Chorus
  
   Bridge:
   In a minute you'll find me
   Eyes burn me up
   You say you'll never forget me
   But the lies have piled up
  
   Moving all around
   Screaming of the ups and downs
   Pollution manifested in perpetual sound
   And as wheels go round the sunset creeps past the
   Street lamps, cars, chain-links, and concrete
   A wind open grows and captures the eye
   Crys out yellow light as it passes it by
   A small black figure sits in front of a box
   Inside a box a rock with the needles on top
  
   Nothing stops in the slanted the chain
   The brains lose not knowing they were part of the game
   And the insides go but the box stays the same
   And shame, shovel up the pieces to the pain
   You could try to hide yourself in the world of pretend
   When the paper's crumbled up it can't be perfect again
  
   Chorus
   Bridge
  
   Yeah I got you caught in the act
   You better step back
   Telling me that
   I seein' right through you (8x)
  
   Bridge (2x)
