Watchtower

I'm calling this an emergency
And I can't seem to match the pace, I'm beset by hate
Confined by contingencies
Can't you see the sirens racing? Flashing though the night

I'm staying up in my tower
Kept in the corners away from you
Took away all of my power
Kept in the dark with everything to lose

I'm off the streets, but still in your heart
I climbed the stairs, and we grew apart

How could I let you go? Time will tell
I'm looking down east towards the sea
Wondering what could've been, you and me
Flashing though the night

I'm staying up in my tower
Kept in the corners away from you
Took away all of my power
Kept in the dark with everything to lose
(With everything to lose)
I'm staying up in my tower
Kept in the corners away from you

In spite of your love, I chose the distance
In spite of your warmth, I made it difficult
I chose the distance
I'm off the streets, but still in your heart
I climbed the stairs, and we grew apart
