The Tower
Threw a bottle
Across the water
To someone who's
Thinking of me
There's a tower in the ocean
Pouring through me
That's my will and testament
I, I, I am waiting on the other side, sigh
Looked out into everything and
I lie, tell myself, "It's nothing" when it's quite right
Everything grows stronger in the light
When a boy who
Played with razors
Met a girl who opened cages
All the birds flew
Through the graveyard
And their laughter
Was contagious
I, I, I am watching on the other side, sigh
Looked out into every nil and nigh
I lie, tell myself it's darkest when it's quite bright
Everything grows stronger in the light
In the light
In the light
In the light
Standing at the sea and swallowing
Without you, beside you
But you knew what I knew
I, I, I am waiting on the other side, sigh
Looked out into everything
I lie, tell myself, "It's nothing" when it's quite right
Everything goes, everything grows
I, I, I am watching, I am waiting
I, I, I am waiting, I'm not breaking
I lie, tell myself, "It's okay" when it's not quite
Everything grows stronger in the light
Across the water
To someone who's
Thinking of me
There's a tower in the ocean
Pouring through me
That's my will and testament
I, I, I am waiting on the other side, sigh
Looked out into everything and
I lie, tell myself, "It's nothing" when it's quite right
Everything grows stronger in the light
When a boy who
Played with razors
Met a girl who opened cages
All the birds flew
Through the graveyard
And their laughter
Was contagious
I, I, I am watching on the other side, sigh
Looked out into every nil and nigh
I lie, tell myself it's darkest when it's quite bright
Everything grows stronger in the light
In the light
In the light
In the light
Standing at the sea and swallowing
Without you, beside you
But you knew what I knew
I, I, I am waiting on the other side, sigh
Looked out into everything
I lie, tell myself, "It's nothing" when it's quite right
Everything goes, everything grows
I, I, I am watching, I am waiting
I, I, I am waiting, I'm not breaking
I lie, tell myself, "It's okay" when it's not quite
Everything grows stronger in the light
