Lyrics

Translation
Bilingual
Bold statements that are not what they seem
Words piled on top of words
While meaning seethes beneath
I work my fingers through your bones
I sink my teeth down into stone
'Cause in the corners of your eyes I see dark towers
I see towers
Give me the rage, the blood and truth
Not fucking platitudes
I want it all, and you will come to love that attitude
You should fear me most when I'm on my knees for you
On my true name and on my crown
I swear I'll bring those towers down
Hopes, dreams and pleasure so sternly set apart
Deep in the shadows where stasis quells the heart
I dip my fingers in your time
I slip my toes across the line
'Cause in the corners of your eyes
I see those towers
I see dark towers
Give me the joy, the hate, the tears, not fucking platitudes
I want it all, and you will come to love that attitude
You should fear me most when I'm on my knees for you
On my true name and on my crown
I swear I'll burn those towers to the ground
The goddamn towers in your eyes
The wasting fortress that you hide behind
Where you are spellbound, deaf and blind
Stale world sways beneath you
Pale thoughts worm your mind through
Clinging on to what defeats you
You're hiding. But I see you
I see you
So give me everything, the lust, the lies, the days you lose
I want you whole, alive and present in a world that moves
I see the towers rise, the fear in your eyes, your heart
And I'm telling you
On my name and on my crown
I swear I'll burn those towers to the ground
Rip the scales from your eyes
Tear stone from stone the walls you hide behind
And I won't promise I'll be kind
But I will bring those towers down
