Crimson Tower
Crimson Tower: A Descent into Despair and Redemption
Lyrics
Trapped in my little box the dark´s consuming
Feeling trapped in a confined space, overwhelmed by darkness
But it is consuming thanks to my own-doing
Acknowledging personal responsibility for the consuming darkness
For I aim, for the crimson tower
Expressing a desire to achieve a metaphorical "crimson tower"
Slowly crawling, reaching higher and higher
Slowly progressing towards the goal of the crimson tower
My so-called friend, gave no helping hand
Referring to a friend who did not provide support
What's left for me in end, just contempt and hate
Facing contempt and hate as a result of the friend's actions
Was it all it meant?
Questioning the significance and meaning of past experiences
Stript me from my life, leave me blind, corrupt my mind
Describing a loss of identity, blindness, and corruption of the mind
Until there's nothing left for me to find
Continuing the theme of personal loss and emptiness
Left for me to find
Emphasizing the repetition of emptiness and loss
Left for me to find
-Left for me to find
-Left for me to find
-Left for me to find
-All I found, were my dirty needles
Discovering only negative aspects represented by "dirty needles"
Leaving my life in these endless riddles
Life is portrayed as a series of confusing and challenging situations
And as I climb for the crimson tower
Continuing the pursuit of the metaphorical "crimson tower"
Reaching my finest hour
Achieving a personal peak or success in the pursuit
All I found, were my dirty needles
Reiterating the themes of negative experiences and the pursuit of a goal
Leaving my life in these endless riddles
-And as I climb for the crimson tower
-Reaching my finest hour
-No pity for own-being, blindfolded can you see?
Rejecting self-pity, questioning awareness while blindfolded
The being dead, that lies before, numb and tore?
Reflecting on a state of being that is dead, numb, and torn
My lifeless body falling down on the floor?
Imagining a lifeless body falling to the floor
But none of it's real
Emphasizing the unreality of the described experiences
But none of it's real
-But none of it's real
-But none of it's real
-All I found, were my dirty needles
Repeating the imagery of negative experiences and pursuing the crimson tower
Leaving my life in these endless riddles
-And as I climb for the crimson tower
-Reaching my finest hour
-All I found, were my dirty needles
Continuing the repetition of themes and experiences
Leaving my life in these endless riddles
-And as I climb for the crimson tower
-Reaching my finest hour
-To pay the highest toll for my soul
Facing consequences, possibly negative, for the soul
Ready for its harvest
Being ready for the consequences or outcomes
Or carry the burden that ain´t the smallest
Accepting a significant burden or challenge
Tell me can I leave any trace
Questioning the ability to leave a mark or trace behind
Or even recognize my mothers face?
Wondering if one can recognize their mother's face, possibly a symbol of lost connections
So addictive
Describing something as addictive, possibly referring to the overall experience
