The Tower - John Vanderslice

I’m staying now

in a vacation house

It’s, it’s all season,

there’s no reason to leave

Today in the fishing boat

I pulled the choke

And started the engine

and set it on slow

slow

I patrolled down the river

under collapsing hopes

And dead leaves and mossy trees

you know I made my way down to the gulf

gulf

I let my friends go

to let my friends know

Tonight I’m staying in

to do my tarot,

I got stuck on a card

I, I couldn’t let it go

go

The burning tower

hit by lightning

and people are jumping out

It’s coming down,

it’s coming down

down
