Forcefully, the power of suggestion
On down the street till the wind is gone
The eyes ease open and it's dark again
I’m telling you that
The picture is there
The memory won’t escape me
But why should I care
You bring the thought back
Taken far from my safety
I see it right through you
A little piece of paper with a picture drawn floats
Now you got me caught in the act
But why should I care
Bottom to top I stop
I’m telling you that
In the middle of my thoughts
When the paper’s crumpled up it can’t be perfect again
There’s a place so dark you can’t see the end
Bottom to top I stop
From the top to the bottom
At the core I’ve forgotten
Moving all around, screaming of the ups and downs
Pollution manifested in perpetual sound
At the core I’ve forgotten
In the memory, you will find me
I see it right through you
And the memory now is like the picture was then
I’m telling you that
At the core I’ve forgotten
I see it right through you

I’m telling you that
The picture is there
I’m telling you that
You bring the thought back
You bring the thought back
The darkness holding me tightly
You bring the thought back
The memory won’t escape me
The memory won’t escape me
Until the sun rises up
In the middle of my thoughts
Taken far from my safety
In the memory you’ll find me
Until the sun rises up
From the top to the bottom
The picture is there
I see it right through you
The darkness holding me tightly
The darkness holding me tightly
From the top to the bottom
From the top to the bottom
The wheels go round and the sunset creeps behind
The darkness holding me tightly
Bottom to top I stop
You bring the thought back
Skies cock back and shock that which can’t defend
From the top to the bottom
In the middle of my thoughts
Eyes burning up
Taken far from my safety
In the middle of my thoughts
Taken far from my safety
Now you got me caught in the act
Taken far from my safety
Eyes burning up
In the memory you’ll find me
At the core I’ve forgotten
The memory won’t escape me
Eyes burning up
But why should I care
Now you got me caught in the act
The picture is there
Now you got me caught in the act
The memory won’t escape me
Bottom to top I stop
And pours over the rusted world of pretend
I’m telling you that
I see it right through you
You bring the thought back
You bring the thought back
The rain then sends dripping, an acidic question
In the memory you’ll find me
Now you got me caught in the act
Street lamps, chain-link and concrete
But why should I care
Bottom to top I stop
I see it right through you
In the middle of my thoughts
Then with the eyes shut, looking though the rust and rot
Until the sun rises up
The picture is there
But why should I care
Now you got me caught in the act
I’m telling you that

I see it right through you
Until the sun rises up
Now you got me caught in the act
Eyes burning up
At the core I’ve forgotten
And dust, a spot of light floods the floor
