The Tower

the sword of truth is just another weapon let me live for just one more second i see a woman, she's holding flowers a bouquet of roses that are blood red from a burning building, a man leaps to his death i stand above these mansions of the dead red tombs and above us looms the tower i see red i see a tower against the sky beneath a red unblinking eye radiowaves curve and cross i stand below them - lost! above me is a black obelisk and the dangers that i risk here gather the ghosts of the mind that tear my heart and here i find all the traps that have been set everything i would forget, beneath the tower i see red i see a tower against the sky beneath a red unblinking eye violence is close at hand you are damned if you do and if you don't - damned! a red eye, tyrant full of hate glares from the sky, it's captive state if it should blink or deviate a thousand worlds would obliterate i do not move, nor do i speak beneath that hard and pitiless peak of concrete, steel and antennae wheels the tower i see red i see a tower against the sky beneath a red unblinking eye
