He's all alone up in a tower
Of steel and stone, pacing for hours
Fingers like knives, tap out the seconds
He'll never know quite what he's done
(Edward if you could only see
A strange smile means the world to me
It'll be allright, it as to be
Edward, soemthing will set you free)
His hair is wild, his hair is black
sticks out in front, sticks out in back
His goofy grin belies despair
at bleeding wounds he leaves everywhere
(Edward how could you know the cause
Of the fear was just because
You have a pair of kniflelike paws
Edward, did you know you had claws?)
You made them gifts, you trimmed shrubbery
Into lawn art with utmost mastery
You gave her love, you gave her flowers
But she still eft you in the tower
(Edward, she couldnt stay with you
She fell in love, that much is true
But when the whole town hates your beau
Edward, whats a girl to do?)
Make the snow fall, cover the astroturf
of a small town that loves the virgin birth
of a young boy everyonehated
crucified, then celebrated
(Edward, they didnt understand
He loved them all, they hate the man
They hate when things dont go as planned
Edward, they live in la-la land)
So keep her face fresh in your mind
No small detail is left behind
Craft out of ice and pass the hours
Of memories up in your tower
