The Tower

Artist: Vienna Teng

Album: Waking Hour (2001)

Lyrics

The one who survives by making the lives

of others worthwhile

She's coming apart

right before my eyes

The one who depends on the services she renders

to those who come knocking

She's seeing too clearly what she can't be

What understanding defies

She says I need not to need

or else a love with intuition

Someone who reaches out to my weakness and won't let go

I need not to need

I've always been the tower

but now I feel like I'm the flower trying to bloom in snow

She turns out the light anticipating night falling

tenderly around her

and watches the dusk

The words won't come

She carries the act so convincingly the fact is

sometimes she believes it

That she can be happy the way things are

Be happy with the things she's done

And yet I need not to need

or else a love with intuition

Someone who reaches out to my weakness and won't let go

I need not to need

I've always been the tower

but now I feel like I'm the flower trying to bloom in snow

Reach out

but hold back

Where is safety

Reach out

and hold back

Where is the one who can change me

Where is the one

The one

The one

Reach out

but hold back

Where is safety

Reach out

and hold back

Where is the one who can save me

Where is the one

The one

The one

I need not to need

or else a love with intuition

someone who reaches out to my weakness and won't let go

I need not to need

I've always been the tower

but now I feel like I'm the flower trying to bloom in snow

I feel like I'm the flower trying to bloom in snow

The danger and the power

The friend and the foe...

I like to think I am in control of my thoughts and feelings but all I can honestly claim is the ability to compartmentalize, which does nothing to eradicate or even neutralize the more troublesome and detrimental pieces of me (and which occasionally requires a hammer and nails, or glue).Nevertheless, the deeper bays I push things into generally keep those vulnerable parts safe until the seal is broken by someone determined to reach all the way inside.She gets it.

A beautiful song by a brilliant mind. Vienna Teng has a beautiful way of expressing the most deepest feelings one can have. She's so underrated, but I'm glad to of been introduced to her music.

Never Alone

And so the 50 people on earth who know who Vienna Teng is were introduced to Vienna Teng. Hard to believe this was the first song she made to be publicly distributed, isn't it?
