The Tower

I've been building my own palace

Climbing to the stars and it's

Paved with all the wisdom I've acquired

If you don't believe me

Why don't you come and see me

In my fairy castle in the sky?

Almost thought I'd made it

Almost thought I'd laid it down for good

From my tower I must dive

Leaving safety far behind

Let it crash and burn

Let my illusions die

Burning robes and wings on fire

Falling free out of the sky

Will you capture me?

Or will you let me die?

In my cosy home

I never feel the cold

And the view is so beautiful from here

These walls protect my heart

By shielding out the dark

And everything that's threatening out there

Almost thought I'd made it

Almost thought I'd layed it down for good

From my tower I must dive

Leaving safety far behind

Let it crash and burn

Let my illusions die

Burning robes and wings on fire

Falling free out of the sky

Will you capture me?

Or will you let me die?

Before we see the day

Our soul must wander through the night

Leaving all our games and lies and fantasies behind

Stripping off the shields

And masks concealing our own light

That shines from inside

From my tower I must dive

Leaving safety far behind

Let it crash and burn

Let my illusions die

Burning robes and wings on fire

Falling free out of the sky

Will you capture me?

Or will you let me die?

From my tower I must dive

Leaving safety far behind

Let it crash and burn

Let my illusions die

Burning robes and wings on fire

Falling free out of the sky

Will you capture me?

Or can I fly?
