te/mo teagan - the tower (single version) lyrics

[verse 1]
have you heard
the tale of she who toppled the whole world
with a winning hand?
she approached
fate’s ancient table, offered up her ghosts
and the moirai said:

[chorus]
“judgement comes, justice runs
and the hanged man’s blocking out the sun
you’ve played the fool, once before
but now the emperor’s at your door
the lovers will not meet your eyes
you’ll be their deepest shame
the devil calls, thе tower falls
you’ll wish you never playеd their game
at all”

[verse 2]
years went by
she left fate’s admonitions far behind
borrowed time should not be spent
still, her kingdom grew
she took more chances ’cause she thought she knew
how she was to end
[chorus]
“if judgement comes, justice runs
and the hanged man starts to block the sun
i’ll play the fool, flee the war
until the emperor’s at my door
the lovers may not meet my eyes
but i’ll endure their shame
when devils crawl up the tower walls
i’d rather play their deadly game
than fall”

[bridge]
suddenly the high priest wails
of the warnings she forget
and temperance she shakes her head
’cause she knows how hard she fought
the world beckons her towards the wheel
and with that, the game was set
she cries “please, spirits, give me strength
’cause i haven’t pulled death yet”

[chorus]
“judgement comes, justice runs
and the hanged man’s blocking out the sun
the magic man takes a bow
i’ll never reach the north star now
the lovers will not meet my eyes
i am their deepest shame
the devil calls, the tower falls
the wheel has stalled, the tower falls
the empress crawls, the tower falls
i wish i’d never played their game”
