Ivory Tower from Persephone by Farasha

I saw you in your tower
so high I couldn't touch you
shimmering like a crystal
held in space
you are a jewel
in the crown
of an ancient queen

She cannot see you
only wears you
like her pride
she cannot hear you
not know the sadness inside

sometimes I look
into your eyes
and see reflections of myself
lost in you who could I be

I've never known
such a lonely place as you
yet you are my only home
and where you go I'll go too

Why do you wait
ancient queen
for your lover by the gate
to break your gaze
and set you free

Can you believe
in the day a knight
will come along
and take you away
out of the dark
out of the dark

I saw you in your tower
so high I couldn't touch you
