Lyrics Taller the Tower - Angelspit

Taller the Tower

The tougher the empire
The darker the hunger
Every tower will devour itself
And fall back into the river
You gotta pay for truth
Liars become gods and never die
Fool the slaves to think they’re free
While building pyramids to reach the sky
This city is a trap without escape
Keep the rats exhausted and afraid
While monoliths watch over us
In our disposable workforce we trust
BUILD UP/
Aaahhhh…
The tougher the empire
The darker the hunger
Every tower will devour itself
And fall back into the river
This city is a trap without escape
Keep the rats exhausted and afraid
While monoliths watch over us
In our disposable workforce we trust
The tougher the empire
The darker the hunger
Every tower will devour itself
And fall back into the river
CHANT/
The taller the tower
The deeper their devotion
The God at the spire
Falls back into the ocean
I can’t afford the truth
While liars become gods and reach the sky
Fooled this slave to think I’m free
Building their pyramids 'til I die
If I work a little harder I can’t escape
Coz I’m broke exhausted and afraid
Devine gift to the working class
Is the cycle of poverty, we cannot break
You gotta pay for truth
You gotta pay for truth
You gotta pay for truth
You gotta pay for truth
The tougher the empire
The darker the hunger
Every tower will devour itself
And fall back into the river
CHANT/
The taller the tower
The deeper their devotion
The God at the spire
Falls back into the ocean
