field of towers

Lick the salt off your fresh wounds
They will heal and you will remember
That your trouble sets your heart to pound
Never trust it ever again.

Let your mind take control
put your heart in sleep mode
Set your standards high
as high as your new tower walls

Let them try in vain ignore thier calls
Hide the Windows and hide the doors
Make them climb and cut through walls
That'll teach those stupid gaffaws

Useless distractions emotional vampires try
No interest in mind just suck the heart dry
Hide away loves compassion
put on your iron in cold fashion

Watch them try and scrape their fingers at your walls
And pour the salt down and watch it land In thier screaming wounds
Till licked and dried in a field of hopelessness
a tall city of tall dark towers bloom...
