Tower of Tears

Make a wish
I'll watch it come true
While I sit here
Making one too.
I wished for love
You wished for power
Now I sit here
Alone in my tower.
My tower of sadness
My tower of fears
No one lies here
Except me and my tears.

I wished for love
I broke the rules
I broke my heart
I've got no tools.
I see you there
In your kingdom of gold
As I lay here
With no one to hold.

Standing here
Thinking of fears
All alone
In my tower of tears.
Help me escape
All these fears
Please let me out
This tower of tears.
