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?
