[Verse 1]
It wasn’t meant to be like this
Life was someone else
There’s a road to the ratchets
That doesn’t lead through hell
There’s a drop on your eyelid
That stays just for him
There’s a scream in your silence
That doesn’t let anyone in

[Pre-Chorus]
Now you don’t understand why you stayed
Cause you wake in the coffin that made you
You’re a stone that’s been thrown in the lake
Now you sink in, it sinks in
[Chorus]
In the top of the tower
The devil he waits, the devil he waits for you
In the darkest of hours
Paid, paid for you
I know you’ve been locked so bad
But go open your way
In the top of the tower
The devil he waits, the devil he waits for you

[Verse 2]
Now you lay in the ashes
Of the house you build
I hope that you [?]
But you lay there still
In the time [?]
And they’re out to kill
Here’s my heart you can have it
And you always will

[Pre-Chorus]
Now you don’t understand why you stayed
Cause you wake in the coffin that made you
You’re a stone that’s been thrown in the lake
Now you sink in, it sinks in

[Chorus]
In the top of the tower
The devil he waits, the devil he waits for you
In the darkest of hours
Paid, paid for you
I know you’ve been locked so bad
But go open your way
In the top of the tower
The devil he waits, the devil he waits for you

[Post-Chorus]
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh

[Bridge]
It wasn’t meant to be like this
Life was someone else
There’s a road to the ratchets
That doesn’t lead through hell
Oh oh oh

[Chorus]
In the top of the tower
The devil he waits, the devil he waits for you
In the darkest of hours
Paid, paid for you
I know you’ve been locked so bad
But go open your way
In the top of the tower
The devil he waits, the devil he waits for you
In the top of the tower
The devil he waits, the devil he waits for you
In the darkest of hours
Paid, paid for you
I know you’ve been locked so bad
But go open your way
In the top of the tower
The devil he waits, the devil he waits for you
