TONGUES

WRITTEN BY THOMAS, LYRICS BY DAVE
LYRICS

Build a tower, to reach the sky
To touch God, and displace Him
When you’re there you’ll be king
But no, you’ll fall from the last step

Great haughtines
light heartedness
human illness

Stone by stone, you’re rising up
Life by life, you reach the top
Step by step, He’ll push you down
Tongue by tongue, you’ve lost the speech

See ten thousand men
See ten thousand lives though all alone
No one to hear you, to understand

Cry to him when you’ll be down
He won’t listen, won’t understand
On the burnt on the dust remains of your work
You’ll mourn my friend, wonder what have you done
You’ll pay my son for all your deeds
