Rhinestone - Xero Demo

From the top to the bottom (bottom to top, I stop)

At the core of the rotten (stopping just what I thought)

But sun has escaped us (so, I'm fighting the sky)

And I'm far from my weightless (thinking, "why did I try?")

From the top to the bottom (bottom to top, I stop)

At the core of the rotten (stopping just what I thought)

But sun has escaped us (so, I'm fighting the sky)

And I'm far from my weightless (thinking, "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 question

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

Then the eyes ease open and it's dark again

From the top to the bottom (bottom to top, I stop)

At the core of the rotten (stopping just what I thought)

But sun has escaped us (so, I'm fighting the sky)

And I'm far from my weightless (thinking, "why did I try?")

From the top to the bottom (bottom to top, I stop)

At the core of the rotten (stopping just what I thought)

But sun has escaped us (so, I'm fighting the sky)

And I'm far from my weightless (thinking, "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

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 captures the eye

And cries out 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

Same lose, not knowing they were part of the game

And then the insides change, but the box stays the same

In shame, shovel up the pieces to the pain

You can try to hide yourself in the 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 of the rotten (stopping just what I thought)

But sun has escaped us (so, I'm fighting the sky)

And I'm far from my weightless (thinking, "why did I try?")

From the top to the bottom (bottom to top, I stop)

In a minute, you'll find me

Eyes burn me up

You say you'll never forget me

But the lies have piled up

Yeah, I got you caught in the act, you better step back

Telling me that I'm seeing right through you

Yeah, I got you caught in the act, you better step back

Telling me that I'm seeing right through you

Yeah, I got you caught in the act, you better step back

Telling me that I'm seeing right through you
