Pom Pom Squad - The Tower Lyrics

Did you see the movie
'Bout the girl so obsessed over proving herself
She loses herself
That's how I felt, tearing into me
Like a sword through the heart
Took the card I was dealt
It didn't end well, that's what I felt

My tower's never ending
And I'm climbing through the fire
Holding my breath but it keeps getting higher

Sad like a habit
Through the static, I couldn't get through to myself
Diluted myself, that's how I fell
I lost my magic and pursued unattached
And untrue to myself
Uprooted myself, that's how I felt

And my tower, I'll defend it
Crumbling to the ground
I'm losing my grip and I'm tumbling down

If I recover, rewind that summer
Leave with at least half the mind I had then
I traded for comfort, passion and wonder
A backyard and maybe a couple of friends
The memories stayed like a scar on my brain
I was chasing a star and I fell
It was good till it wasn't and all of a sudden
My wonderland turned into hell

It was just like the part in the movie
Where the mirror starts moving without me
In the glare, caught a glimpse of myself
And I know that I fell
