Lyrics
Watchtower
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I'm calling this an emergency
And I can't seem to match the pace
I'm beset by hate
Confined by contingencies
Can't you see the sirens racing?
Flashing through the night
I'm staying up in my tower
Kept in the corners away from you
Took away all of my power
Kept in the dark with everything to lose
I'm off the streets
But still in your heart
I climbed the stairs
And we grew apart
How could I let you go?
Time will tell
I'm looking down east towards the sea
Wondering what could've been you and me
Flashing through the night
I'm staying up in my tower
Kept in the corners away from you
Took away all of my power
Kept in the dark with everything to lose
With everything to lose
I'm staying up in my tower
Kept in the corners away from you
In spite of your love
I chose the distance
In spite of your warmth
I made it difficult
I chose the distance
I'm off the streets
But still in your heart
I climbed the stairs
And we grew apart
