Tower of the Silence

I'll climb through the rafters
Past storage and boxes
Of memories and dreams I once had;
Now forgotten.
I'll break through the cobwebs
And climb up the rungs
Till I'm up in the tower where
I go to be alone

When the pain just gets so bad
You're thinking you'll choke,
Just reach up through the clouds,
Past that thin veil of smoke
Cause you've got a Tower
Just like we all do.
Just scale it and realize
The Tower is You.

My Tower, my refuge
The strength in my solitude
The pain I can't seem to lose
Can't reach me up here...
Reaching up so high
Straight up to the heavens
Loving the absence
From all that was wrong before...

So sayeth The Brad...
