"The Tower (Remix)" lyrics

Neoni & Lydia The Bard Lyrics

"The Tower (Remix)"

Oh-ah, ah-yeah
Oh-ah, ah-yeah
Oh-ah, ah-yeah
Yeah, ah

High above the mountains
I lock my feelings up so tight
A thousand steps into the sky
Trapped in a prison behind my eyes
I put on my bravest face
Like all my troubles are miles away
Nothing there ever escapes
The Labyrinth I built inside my brain

Then when I'm all alone
I stand and stare out the window
Into my soul and wonder if I was, wonder if I was
Born to be mortar and stone
A cynic with blood that runs cold
And never knows what it feels like to be close

Every second, every hour
I take bricks and build the tower
I use all my strength and power
Just so I can hide and cower
Every second, every hour
I take bricks and build the tower
Safe and sound, my life devoured
I realize I am the tower

I enjoy a white lie
Tell myself one for bed each night
Denial is my lullaby
And sings: "Make sure your walls stay high"

So, when I wake for the day
I find more bricks and I gather clay
Delusions say: "Inside my fortress, I'll be safe"

Every second, every hour
I take bricks and build the tower
I use all my strength and power
Just so I can hide and cower
Every second, every hour
I take bricks and build the tower
Safe and sound, my life devoured
I realize I am the tower

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

Safe and sound, my life devoured
I realize I am the tower
