The Flower Kings
Tower One
She'll walk me slowly through burning spears
She'll be my shelter, no sign of fears
She'll walk me slowly through halls of light
She'll be my shelter, she'll be my eyes
She'll walk me slowly through 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 and 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 and his nation
Like fools we just stare at the sun
Don't we all shine on? Don't we all shine on?
She'll walk me slowly through 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
I'll know just when the end is near
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 through burning spears
She'll be my shelter, no sign of fears
And in a world that I once knew
Descend in ashes, her words ring true
She'll walk me slowly through 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
