Linkin Park - Rhinestone (Forgotten Demo) lyrics

From the top to the bottom Bottom to top I stop At the core of the rotten Stop and just what I thought The sun has escaped us So I'm bright in the sky And I'm far from awakeness Thinking why I did try From the top to the bottom Bottom to top I stop At the core of the rotten Stop and just what I thought The sun has escaped us So I'm bright in the sky And I'm far from awakeness Thinking why I did try From the thread to the needle, middle to end When skies co*k back and shock that which couldn't defend The rain then sends dripping innocent 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 From the top to the bottom Bottom to top I stop At the core of the rotten Stop and just what I thought The sun has escaped us So I'm bright in the sky And I'm far from awakeness Thinking why I did try From the top to the bottom Bottom to top I stop At the core of the rotten Stop and just what I thought The sun has escaped us So I'm bright in the sky And I'm far from awakeness Thinking why I did 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 wind open grows and captures the eye Crys out yellow light as it pa**es 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 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 From the top to the bottom Bottom to top I stop At the core of the rotten Stop and just what I thought The sun has escaped us So I'm bright in the sky And I'm far from awakeness Thinking why I did try From the top to the bottom Bottom to top I stop At the core of the rotten Stop and just what I thought The sun has escaped us So I'm bright in the sky And I'm far from awakeness Thinking why I did 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 Yeah I got you got in the act You better step back Telling me that I seein' right through you Yeah I got you got in the act You better step back Telling me that I seein' right through you Yeah I got you got in the act You better step back Telling me that I seein' right through you Yeah I got you got in the act You better step back Telling me that I seein' right through you Yeah I got you got in the act You better step back Telling me that I seein' right through you Yeah I got you got in the act You better step back Telling me that I seein' right through you Yeah I got you got in the act You better step back Telling me that I seein' right through you Yeah I got you got in the act You better step back Telling me that I seein' right through you In a minute you'll find me Eyes burn me up You say you'll never forget me But the lies have piled up In a minute you'll find me Eyes burn me up You say you'll never forget me But the lies have piled up
