Within the Tower
Break and tear at my skin
Pull down the covers
Reveal my true sins
I'm not a real lover
Chip at my fortress
That I've build high in the sky
Knock down the door
Its within there I hide
Fight the dragon
That stands in your way
Pass by him with ease
As he's quite easy prey
Scale to the furthest tower
Within there I lay
A lonely girl hiding
This is where I stay
The walls mean nothing
Nor the doors that are bolted
That dragon so fierce
Is weak though devoted
Its easy to break through
Its simple to get in
But the real question is
How do you win?
The real challenge wasn't
The doors and the riddles
It was whether or not
You could cure me, even just a little
To rid me of this curse
Lay upon by a witch
To forever feel this loneliness
Though I am a complete *****
So tell me darling do you know
The way to set me free?
Or will you be like the rest of them
If so, go on and flee
I'll stay in this tower
Dont you worry
You weren't the prince for me
I know that the truth is that I'm the one
The only one who can set myself free
