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
