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, 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 Lie, tell myself it's darkest when it's quite bright Everything grows stronger in her 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 and I lie Tell myself it's nothing, when it's quite right Everything grows, 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
