[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
Falling from your tower of glass
Falling from your tower of glass
Falling from your tower of glass
[Outro]
Climbing your tower of glass (Climbing, climbing)
Climbing your tower of glass (Climbing, climbing)
Climbing your tower of glass (Climbing, climbing)
Climbing your tower of glass (Climbing, climbing)
Climbing your tower of glass
Climbing your tower of glass
