Artist: Linkin Park Album: Xero EP Song: Rhinestone Typed by: AZ Lyrics From the top to the bottom (Bottom to top I stop) At the core of the rotten (Stop to just what I thought) But sun has escaped us (So I've frightened the sky) And I'm far from a rapist (Thinking why did I try) From the thread to the needle; middle to end Where 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 rotten dust, a spot of light floods the floor 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 (Stop to just what I thought) But sun has escaped us (So I've frightened the sky) And I'm far from a rapist (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, swinging of the ups and downs Pollution manifested in perpetual sound And as the wheels go 'round, the sunset creeps past the Street lamps, cars, chainlinks, and concrete A window then grows, and captures the eye And cries out a yellow light as it passes it by A small black figure sits in front of a box Inside a box of rock with a needles on top Nothing stops in this land of the chain When brains lose not knowing they were part of the game And in the insides grow, 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 (Stop and just what I thought) The sun has escaped us (So I've frightened the sky) And I'm far from a rapist (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 caught in the act You better step back Telling me that I'm seeing 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 keep piling up...)
