The Tower
from The Chrysalis by Lunarin
lyrics
I lost my voice
Trapped in these four walls
Giving in
To what we’ve become
I found my strength
Locked in a trinity
And all these deeds
Can’t be undone
You said
“I’ll never forget you
You lied
I’ll never return”
In truth
Things were not meant to be broken
The hole
It drinks right from my soul
The whole
It grows
Just ebb and let it
Flow
We’ve seen this all too well
It echoes in time
Too late
To show you the door out in kindness
So…
It’s complicated
We hid you from the truth
It’s complicated
All words fail so what’s the truth?
It’s complicated
The faultline runs with you
It’s complicated
So we hid you from the truth
Seven years can’t be that long
Look in the mirror now
Search for the truth
“Forgive me
Forgive me”
You think we’ll owe you these words
Maybe we will
Maybe we will
But maybe we’ll
Forget
Piece by piece
We built it up and we can tear it down
As the waters break and bleed
The whole can now be found
Even as we flow
You’re not our only sound
Now all we want is to bring the tower down
Trapped in these four walls
Giving in
To what we’ve become
I found my strength
Locked in a trinity
And all these deeds
Can’t be undone
You said
“I’ll never forget you
You lied
I’ll never return”
In truth
Things were not meant to be broken
The hole
It drinks right from my soul
The whole
It grows
Just ebb and let it
Flow
We’ve seen this all too well
It echoes in time
Too late
To show you the door out in kindness
So…
It’s complicated
We hid you from the truth
It’s complicated
All words fail so what’s the truth?
It’s complicated
The faultline runs with you
It’s complicated
So we hid you from the truth
Seven years can’t be that long
Look in the mirror now
Search for the truth
“Forgive me
Forgive me”
You think we’ll owe you these words
Maybe we will
Maybe we will
But maybe we’ll
Forget
Piece by piece
We built it up and we can tear it down
As the waters break and bleed
The whole can now be found
Even as we flow
You’re not our only sound
Now all we want is to bring the tower down
