Haken Messiah Complex I: Ivory Tower Lyrics

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]
Shameless, skying above
Preying on the nameless, jury and judge
Everything they had was never enough
Spirit me away

[Chorus]
Crawling under my skin, spiraling through my head
Taste my own medicine, drunk on the power
Rid this pestilence from within, a prayer for the innocent
Talk me down from the ledge of my ivory tower

[Verse 2]
Struggle to be in the now
When life's too much to swallow, it spits me right out But I cling on, reaping seeds I dare to sow
For all the lives I ever stole and now I must repel the host
Forever I'll be spirited away

[Chorus]
Crawling under my skin, spiraling through my head
Taste my own medicine, drunk on the power
Rid this pestilence from within, a prayer for the innocent
Talk me down from the ledge of my ivory tower

[Outro]
Where I end, you begin
When I fall, you will stand
