Lyrics
The Tower And The Snake
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.
Our hands are cuffed
In case we'd open the book
The guns of the silence killed the nowhere man
Involved in a standoff
The only dream allowed is the "going nowhere" dream
It mews as she sees it slowly rises
Wake up crying
Holding knees to chest
Snakes are all gone
Don't worry my friend
Now sleep again
Sleep again
