Towers

[Verse 1]
I found it kind of humourless
Our fallout months ago
I knew you way too well too fast
And it's taken its toll on me
You thought I was an angel
Seemed that I perceived you as a saint
I saw myself within you
And within me you found somewhere to place your faith

[Chorus]
I was noble like a knight, I was lucent like a light
I was taller than a tower when I stayed within your sight
I was taller than a tower in your sights
So now I'm not afraid of heights

[Verse 2]
Was never my intention to
Grow overly attached
Although I'm unsure of what else one's supposed to do
When they are made to feel like that
Will I ever understand why you saw me as an angel?
I told the whole damn world you were a saint
Now I wonder, why do I still hold on?
And try to decipher what went wrong
Seems I'm not as wise as you characterised
And I cannot always see straight

[Chorus]
'Cause I was caught up in your clout
I was all you were about
I depended on your deference, counted anybody else's out
'Cause you were noble like a knight
You were lucent like a light
You were taller than a tower
When you stayed within my sight
You were taller than a tower in my sights
So now you're not afraid of heights

[Bridge]
Or risk of falling
But now we're fallen in the worst way that I know
I guess all I can do is hope that
If ever in your mind you go back
You pause, reflect, see it in hindsight
As something just so right
(As something just so right)

[Verse 3]
That's why I found it all so humourless
The fallout on the whole
I knew you way too well too fast
And that's taking its toll
'Cause now I miss you more than you would want to know

[Chorus]
We were noble like knights, we were lucent like light
We were taller than towers in one another's eyes
We were taller than towers then
So much taller than towers then
I was taller than a tower in your eyes and now I'm not afraid
