Towers Of Rabble

Original Lyrics

[This is a song I wrote a couple weeks ago,

and I thought I’d play it just to see how it goes.

So if it’s, oh, it’s called ‘Towers of Rabble’,

and if it sucks, let me know…]

Be yourself, don’t be yourself

Speak your mind, don’t speak your mind

Stand alone, don’t stand alone

Be on your own, be all alone

And as the bells ring the graces

Of a newborn day

The voices sing the praises

Of your promised youth, promised whenever

And no one can see you

So do what you want to

You’re invisible next to forever

Be yourself, don’t be yourself

Speak your mind, don’t speak your mind

Stand alone, don’t stand alone

Be on your own, be all alone

Take some time to thank the souls

For all their emptiness

Upon the fever dreams of distant sons

And daughters dressed for ransoms, for never

And nobody knows you

Even if they pretend to

They all sure that they’re just as clever

Truth is rare as ivory

The truth is in their pure deceit

Blessed in your naivete

Ooh, I thank you all

Ooh, I thank you all

Ooh, I thank you all, I do

Ooh, I thank you all
