I was shaped like the swirling clouds
And had a mind to figure it out
And i was so lonely as well
With an inconvienient self
But along came the pouring rain
With the gift of life in a sting of pain
It was some kind of feeling that penetrated me
I didn't know i had feelings before
And the difference was not slight, i believe
It was unlike anything i've ever known before
That im a leaning tower!
In the middle of nowhere
And longing to be so in times of despair
That im a leaning tower!
Below the sunrise
And longing to be so in times i despise
And because of you im bent from the back
Im helplessly dragged, im self-cracked
But straight is not the only merit i lack
And the only thing i see in my path
Is the comforting aftermath
You're my comforting aftermath
Now that i've realised
That im more desperate than the drought
Than the death that lingers out
And im seperate as well
From the world itself
But in you i find
My better self
While im a leaning tower
A leaning tower besides you...
