The Tower Lyrics

it soars
with it's massive trunk
breaching the clouds
it soars
it's shadow streches
across the land

it's dominion from shore to shore
it's spell creeps under every door
it's dominion from shore to shore
the tower needs, needs more

Rule Number 1
each man is what he owns
whether or not one truly exists
is a question of having things

Rule Number 2
things have purpose while the only purpose
of flesh is to possess them

Rule Number 3
what one does not possess it
is mandatory to land

Rule Number 4
the bond is the marrow of your bones

Rule Number 5
debt is inherent and the birthright
of the young

See it rise, in the distance
massive mammoth, made of stone
contorting and expanding
blood upon brick, brick on bone
and it all leans down
sloping heavily
torwards a shattered end
on barren grounds

why did we build it?
because they hate us
why do they hate us?
because we build it

and it all leans down
sloping heavily
torwards a shattered end
on barren grounds

it soars
with it's massive trunk
breaching the clouds

it soars
it's shadow streches
across the land
it's dominion from shore to shore
it's spell creeps under every door
it's dominion from shore to shore
the tower needs

the tower is more

as one draws closer to
the spire beckoning you
the crookedness straightens out
dispelling each trace of doubt
it's perfect in every seam
this divine gracious beam

to the heavens up from the ground
a cable bound

as one reaches further up
drawing closer to the top
of that divine gracious beam
so perfect in every seam

one will lose sight of the ground
on ones journey heaven bound
one will lose sight of the ground
while one is heaven bound
