In the tower above the earth,
|
There is a view that reaches far
|
Where we see the universe,
|
I see the fire, I see the end.
|
|
Seven miles above the earth,
|
There is Emmanuel of mothers.
|
With his sword, with his robe,
|
He comes dividing man from brothers.
|
|
In the tower above the earth, we built it for Emmanuel.
|
In the powers of the earth, we wait until it rips and rips.
|
In the tower above the earth, we built it for Emmanuel.
|
Oh my mother, she betrayed us, but my father loved and bathed us.
|
|
Still I go to the deepest grave,
|
Where I go to sleep alone
|
