Taken far from my safety, the picture's there
In the memory you'll find me, eyes burning up
The power of suggestion, then with the eyes shut
Now you got me caught in the act, you bring the thought back
And the memory now is like the picture was then
I'm telling you that, I see it right through you
I'm telling you that, I see it right through you
A little piece of paper with a picture drawn
Floats on down the street till the wind is gone
In the memory you'll find me, eyes burning up
When the paper's crumpled up, it can’t be perfect again
Taken far from my safety, the picture's there
Skies cock back and shock that which can't defend
Now you got me caught in the act, you bring the thought back
In the memory you'll find me, eyes burning up
The memory won't escape me, but why should I care?
The memory won't escape me, but why should I care?
From the top to the bottom, bottom to top, I stop
Now you got me caught in the act, you bring the thought back
Looking through the rust and rot and dust
I'm telling you that, I see it right through you
I'm telling you that, I see it right through you
At the core I’ve forgotten, in the middle of my thoughts
Now you got me caught in the act, you bring the thought back
From the top to the bottom, bottom to top, I stop
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
And pours over the rusted world of pretend
A small spot of light floods the floor
Pollution manifested in perpetual sound the wheels go round
The darkness holding me tightly, until the sun rises up
I'm telling you that, I see it right through you
I'm telling you that, I see it right through you
At the core I’ve forgotten, in the middle of my thoughts
Now you got me caught in the act, you bring the thought back
And the sunset creeps behind street lamps
The memory won't escape me, but why should I care?
The rain then sends dripping, acidic questions, forcefully
In the memory, you will find me, eyes burning up
Now you got me caught in the act, you bring the thought back
The darkness holding me tightly, until the sun rises up
Theres a place so dark you can't see the end
Chain link and concrete
Now you got me caught in the act, you bring the thought back
I'm telling you that, I see it right through you
Taken far from my safety, the picture's there
Taken far from my safety, the picture's there
From the top to the bottom, bottom to top, I stop
The memory won't escape me, but why should I care?
And the eyes ease open and it's dark again
Moving all around, screaming of the ups and downs
At the core I’ve forgotten, in the middle of my thoughts
The darkness holding me tightly, until the sun rises up
The memory won't escape me, but why should I care?
