In the Tower above the earth
There is a view that reaches far
Where we cede the universe
I see the fire, I see the end
Seven miles above the earth
There is Emanuel of Mothers
With His sword, with His robe
He comes dividing man from brothers
In the Tower above the earth,
We built it for Emanuel
In the Powers of the earth,
We wait until it rails and rails
In the Tower above the earth,
We built it for Emanuel
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
There is a view that reaches far
Where we cede the universe
I see the fire, I see the end
Seven miles above the earth
There is Emanuel of Mothers
With His sword, with His robe
He comes dividing man from brothers
In the Tower above the earth,
We built it for Emanuel
In the Powers of the earth,
We wait until it rails and rails
In the Tower above the earth,
We built it for Emanuel
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
