Tower One Songtext
von The Flower Kings

She′ll walk me slowly thru burning spears
She'll be my shelter - no sign of fears
She′ll walk me slowly thru halls of light
She'll be my shelter - she'll be my eyes

Man has turned his face in anger
Cold confusion now reign supreme
So will the center hold much longer
in this point-blank industrial scream?

Broken promises in shielded towers
Broken wingspan - disturbing dreams
Down the all now familiar walkways
Angels play-dust has lost its sheen

The spy who watch us while we move in imperfection
his lies brings comfort to the king & his nation
Like fools we just stare at the sun
Don′t we all shine on?


Broken promises in shielded towers
Broken wingspan - disturbing dreams
Down the all now familiar walkways
Angels play-dust has lost its sheen

Angel eyes now look down so restless
From frail glass towers and rising steam
A major impact will turn us over
To mold a nightmare from dreams surreal

The spy who watch us while we move in imperfection
his lies brings comfort to the king & his nation
Like fools we just stare at the sun
Don′t we all shine on?

She'll walk me slowly - thru burning spears
She′ll be my shelter - no sign of fears
The roaring thunder of worlds below
We walk and wait for the final blow

I might have turned away from wonder
I left all that I once held dear

How can I turn away from anger?
How can I turn away from fear?
Now will I be the last surrender?
I'll know just when the end is near


So you dream of a new independence
while they tighten the grip around your neck
So the state has become the offender
To a point where there′s no turning back

She'll walk me slowly - thru burning spears
She′ll be my shelter - no sign of fears
In a world that I once knew
Descend in ashes - Her words ring true

She'll walk me slowly - thru halls of light
She'll be my shelter - she′ll be my eyes
And in a world that we once knew
She gives me hope - Her words ring true
