lyrics

I shed my skin, you see me,
(there's) nothing left to peel.
Darkness creeps around me,
I don't know what I feel.
The bats have flown the belfry,
the days they blow on by.
I crawl to you, my darling (master),
Who knows the reason why?

Whispers sound so loud to me,
Lead me on, it's ecstasy,
Build the Devil's Tower...
Serve up worlds of my desire,
Burn me up, in magic fire,
Climb the Devil's Tower...

Is it intuition,
that brings me back to you?
I search my head for answers,
to try and end the coup.
The books are burning nightly,
The leaders know my name.
I hide here in the shadows,
And push through tears of pain.

Learn what I desire most,
Tempt me with your tales of ghosts,
Atop the Devil's Tower...
I hunt a thing that lives on tears,
I'll chase it down, for all my years,
To the Devil's Tower...

Build me up to watch me fall,
I give myself, you take it all,
At the Devil's Tower...
