I was scared and you held me tight
It was like we were in black and white
As clear as day, as dark as night
And the truth became a lie
There was no longer peace of mind
Just fear of the unknown and the unkind
And then when he undressed me
And took my body
I was resolute to being fine
Now the soldiers are all on fire
And our hearts are dead from desire
And when you say it has nothing to do
Nothing to do with you, you're a liar
Now the sky is filled with dust
Of those we loved and those we lost
Rebuild the tower
Make it last longer
Make it stronger
Give up your power
We had visions in the night I was scared and you held me tight It was like we were in black and white As clear as day, as dark as night And the truth became a lie There was no longer peace of mind Just fear of the unknown and the unkind And then when he undressed me And took my body I was resolute to being fine Now the soldiers are all on fire And our hearts are dead from desire And when you say it has nothing to do Nothing to do with you, you're a liar Now the sky is filled with dust Of those we loved and those we lost Rebuild the tower Make it last longer Make it stronger Give up your power Explain Request ×
