Ivory Tower Songtext
von Sharp Class

The doors are shut while they′re having words
But if they've got to get a point across they must be heard
Just like a schoolboy in the playground
Wanting the last word in before the bell sounds

The words they speak don′t speak to me
What they see I can't say I see
Inside their rooms removed from reality
Truth be told; that sounds so revolutionary

The ivory tower burns from the inside out
The structures failing now the whole things coming down
The ivory tower burns from the inside out
They've set it ablaze and it′s crashing to the ground

Promises are thrown into the flames
Each done with twisted smile and no trace of shame
Whats left of hope is taken and torched
And we can watch it smoulder as the common people fall


Minds turned criminal against the public
Critical Remarks will leave you clinging to nothing
To bow down would do myself injustice
For leaders that care only for their own interests
Carry intent that′s all too biased

The ivory tower burns from the inside out
The structures failing now the whole things coming down
The ivory tower burns from the inside out
They've set it ablaze and it′s crashing to the ground

That Face, that smug Face
You wear when you're disclosing
Another matter, but what′s the matter with you?

The ivory tower burns from the inside out
The structures failing now the whole things coming down
The ivory tower burns from the inside out
They've set it ablaze and it′s crashing to the ground
The ivory tower burns from the inside out
The structures failing now the whole things coming down
The ivory tower burns from the inside out
They've set it ablaze and it's crashing to the ground
The ivory tower burns from the inside out
The structures failing now the whole things coming down
The ivory tower burns from the inside out
They′ve set it ablaze and it′s crashing to the ground
