ft ed sheeran devlin - watchtower (ft. ed sheeran) - devlin lyrics
there must be some kind of way out of here
said the joker to the thief, yeah
there’s too much confusion
mmm i can’t get no relief
yeah
i see jokers on my left, thieves upon my right
you’d find me in the middle if i picked a different life
before my name started tripling in size
but i’m still showing signs
in the pitch black, it’s too cold
i’m all alone take me back to the roads
i had to rode to get here and i’ll hitch back
get a cab to my mother’s house
see my old man and grab a six pack
tell my brother i love him
and give him something that will see him through the hard times
what’s a brother for?
when i’m sick of this life i see
it has to be my family who lift me off the floor
make sense of all the madness in a world full of money and…
i was a failed man and worse i couldn’t give a f-ck
save your wine for the entrepreneurs
all along the watchtower
princes kept the view
while all the women came and went
barefoot servants too, yeah
outside in the cold distance
a wildcat did growl
two riders were approaching
and the wind began to howl
cause your world is the same as mine
pour more blood in your cup
take a sip full of sin and let your taste buds savour the buzz
the flavour of an ill-mannered nature
that lingers on as animals in all of us
trying to fight for the right to live a life
but some will never win though
that’s why they live a lie
i don’t think i’ll ever win
all of this is anything
when i die i hope a brother’s at my side
there’s no trap door, or get out clause
the world can be your oyster or a set of jail doors
you’ve seen mine, i think it’s time i see yours
i bet you that we’ve been scarred by the same swords
some are lost some are…
apart from the fact i live my life in the light and now i’m trapped in it
the way i feel within a few years time
i might have a couple kids and just forget i ever wrote this
all along the watchtower
princes kept the view
while all the women came and went
barefoot servants too, yeah
outside in the cold distance
a wildcat did growl
two riders were approaching
and the wind began to howl
take away the treasure of a man
convinced that he holds heaven in his hands
even though i ain’t religious i’m a little superst-tious
maybe there is a promised land
but will i make it or not is a different matter
i’ve been a joker, i’ve been a thief, i’ve been a rapper
i’ve been the only enemy that i can never beat
give me a piece of mind upon a platinum platter
all along the watchtower
princes kept the view
while all the women came and went
barefoot servants too, yeah
outside in the cold distance
a wildcat did growl
two riders were approaching
and the wind began to howl
