Bricks, concrete, metal and memories
Inside the rocks and stone, spaces became our home
Arguments echoing, love made me so high
Searching for words for the end
But we built the tower too high
When the light finally dies and we look to the sky
Will we finally know why
The call the dawn the morning
And I'd wish we'd said goodbye
Years flying by, trapped all alone in the sky
And you stories down and all our loved ones outside
Our words turned out all wrong
Intentions lost in halls
Now all I want to do is tear down the walls
Searching for words for the end
But we built the tower too high
When the light finally dies and we look to the sky
Will we finally know why
The call the dawn the morning
And I wish we'd said goodbye
Seems like the final day you'll ever come my way
So please forgive me if I hold on too tight, too tight
Tight, tight, tight
There's a tower, there's a tower
There's a tower, crumbling
Crumbling, crumbling, down
So when the light finally dies
I'll know the answer to why
They call the dawn, mourning
Wish I could've told you goodbye.
We built a tower for all the town to see Bricks, concrete, metal and memories Inside the rocks and stone, spaces became our home Arguments echoing, love made me so high Searching for words for the end But we built the tower too high When the light finally dies and we look to the sky Will we finally know why The call the dawn the morning And I'd wish we'd said goodbye Years flying by, trapped all alone in the sky And you stories down and all our loved ones outside Our words turned out all wrong Intentions lost in halls Now all I want to do is tear down the walls Searching for words for the end But we built the tower too high When the light finally dies and we look to the sky Will we finally know why The call the dawn the morning And I wish we'd said goodbye Seems like the final day you'll ever come my way So please forgive me if I hold on too tight, too tight Tight, tight, tight There's a tower, there's a tower There's a tower, crumbling Crumbling, crumbling, down So when the light finally dies I'll know the answer to why They call the dawn, mourning Wish I could've told you goodbye.
