I Am The Tower

Bring it All Down

By Karen LaRuePublished 3 years ago 1 min read

I am the tower

I am destruction

I will explode

The whole thing from within

I am you’re tower

I’ll bring your whole life crashing down

I will make it all crumble

I will bring it right down to the ground

Here’s the thing

You can’t really grumble

You just found the you inside

The you that never fit

I am the tower

I am destruction

I will explode

The whole thing from within

I am you’re tower

I’ll bring your whole life crashing down

So now

So now anew you stumble

Don’t you see

That life was never you

This time through don’t be humble

Throw other’s expectations

Right on out the door

I am the tower

I am destruction

I will explode

The whole thing from within

I am you’re tower

I’ll bring your whole life crashing down
