Vulture Industries - The Tower lyrics

It soars With its ma**ive trunk breaching the clouds It soars Its shadow stretches across the land Its dominion from shore to shore Its spell creeps in under every door Its dominion from shore to shore The tower needs more Rule number 1 Each man is what he owns Whether or not one truly exists is a question of having things Rule number 2 Things have purpose while the only purpose of flesh is to possess them Rule number 3 What one does not possess it is mandatory to land Rule number 4 The bond is the marrow of your bones Rule number 5 Debt is inherent and the birthright of the young See it rise in the distance Ma**ive mammoth made of stone Contorting and expanding Blood upon brick, brick on bone And it all leans down Sloping heavily towards a shattered end on barren grounds Why did we build it? Because they hate us Why do they hate us? Because we built it And it all leans down Sloping heavily towards a shattered end on barren grounds It soars With its ma**ive trunk breaching the clouds It soars Its shadow stretches across the land Its dominion from shore to shore Its spell creeps in under every door Its dominion from shore to shore The tower needs! The tower is more! As one draws closer to the spire beckoning you The crookedness straightens out dispelling each trace of doubt It is perfect in every seam This divine gracious beam To the heavens up from the ground, a cable bound As one reaches further up Drawing closer to the top Of that divine gracious beam So perfect in every seam One will lose sight of the ground On ones journey heaven bound One will lose sight of the ground While one is heaven bound While one is heaven bound While one is heaven bound While one is heaven bound While one is heaven bound
