Rhinestone Vol.2 ("Forgotten" demo)
[Intro:]
From the top to the bottom,
bottom to the 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 will escape me,
so why did I try ?
From the top to the bottom,
bottom to the 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 will escape me,
so why did I try ?
[1st Verse:]
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 through 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 it's dark again.
[Chorus:]
From the top to the bottom,
bottom to the 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 will escape me,
so why did I try ?
In a minute you'll find me,
eyes burn me up.
You say you'll never forget me
but the lies have piled up.
[2nd Verse:]
Moving all around,
screaming of the ups and downs,
pollution manifested in perpetual sound.
And as the wheels go round, the sunset creeps
past the street lamps, cars, chain links and concrete.
A window then grows and capture the eye,
pries 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 this land of pain.
The sane lose not knowing
they were part of the game.
And the inside changes
and the box stays the same.
In shame, you shovel up the pieces to the pain.
You could try to hide yourself
in this world of pretend.
{But} when the paper's crumbled up,
it can't be perfect again.
[Chorus:]
From the top to the bottom,
bottom to the 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 will escape me,
so why did I try ?
In a minute you'll find me,
eyes burn me up.
You say you'll never forget me
but the lies have piled up.
[Bridge:]
Now, I've got you caught in the act,
you better step back.
I'm telling you that I see it right through you.
Now, I've got you caught in the act,
you better step back.
I'm telling you that I see it right through you.
Now I've got you caught in the act,
you better step-back.
I'm telling you that I see-it-ri-ght-through-you.
Now I've got you caught in the act,
you better step-back.
I'm telling you that I see-it-ri-ght-through-you.
(Are you afraid of the truth ?)
Now, I've got you caught in the act,
you better step back. (afraid of the truth)
I'm telling you that I see it right through you.
(Are you afraid of the truth ?)
Now, I've got you caught in the act,
you better step back. (afraid of the truth)
I'm telling you that I see it right through you.
(Are you afraid of the truth ?)
Now, I've got you caught in the act,
you better step back. (afraid of the truth)
I'm telling you that I see it right through you.
[Chorus:]
In a minute you'll find me,
eyes burn me up.
You say you'll never forget me,
but the lies have piled up.
[Outro:]
In a minute you'll find me,
eyes burn me up.
You say you'll never forgive me,
but the lies have piled up...
