lyrics

Tower

pull the tower
from the deck
deconstruct and reconnect
heave the spirit
from the marrow
to the mirror
and reflect

falling bodies
foreign bodies
for we embody
in the flesh
the faulty remnants
of following our
blind selves to the death

and challenging
the changing winds
that chase us westward
not again

the choice we have
the blank check
the chance we finally get

we left behind
our bold decisions
like a fading bet on black

the wheel is spinning
a new beginning
at the end

I feel you in me
like a fire gypsy
whistling round the bend
I feel you in me
like a fire lindsay
won't you stick around a bit?

I heard your laughter
captured
and decapitated
I just wanted to
let loose the locks
and liberate it

I watched your eyes
exploring mine
and flashing light
into the space
behind the ancient cave
where I
was baptized by the bats
and finally saved

I felt your graceful skin
expose itself
damp and heaving
wet and peeled off every layer
underneath your pulse was beating

I tasted lips like tangerines
sweet and tongued the darkness
breathed in all your mystery
and felt my heart beat back
the hardest clap
a falling star
I hardly knew
how far

and I feel you in me
like a fine whiskey
tumbling from the jar
and I feel you in me
like a fire gypsy
stumbling from the bar
