Ivory tower silence

Faces carved in stone

I am here, but you are there

I am here alone

Ivory tower blindness

Eyes that bleed with tears

I stay within, but you’re without

I stay within my fears

Ivory tower deafness

Stone ears hold out the din

I hold my thoughts, but you do not

I hold my thoughts within

Ivory tower weakness

A tower all alone

I am one, but you are many

I am one forlorn
