Spinning the Top
How can you tell what's real?
Only one way to know
You just keep spinning the top
You never can trust a soul
Cause once they're in, you're at their mercy
No secret's safe from prying eyes
And what's worse than what they might take
Is the ideas they can hide
You've gotta await the kick
Now that they've got you under
And will you just end it all
You begin to wonder
And the further that you slip down
The slower time can seem to pass
As you drift to lower levels
Seconds long as years can last
One man thought to be a killer
Does he fit inside the frame?
Is there still hope he could come back?
Will he ever clear his name?
One man disappoints his father
Could he ever fill those shoes?
Should he take apart his empire?
What has he got left to lose?
Cause once they're in, you're at their mercy
No secret's safe from prying eyes
And what's worse than what they might take
Is the ideas they can hide
And the further that you slip down
The slower time can seem to pass
As you drift to lower levels
Seconds long as years can last
How can you tell what's real?
Only one way to know
You just keep spinning the top
You never can trust a soul
