Lyrics:

A crack in the sky, a fire in the air,
The walls come down, but no one’s prepared.
Everything I built, everything I knew,
Gone in a flash—what do I do?

Lightning strikes without a sound,
No way back, no solid ground.
Through the wreckage, through the fall,
Will I rise or lose it all?

I am The Tower, the storm, the break,
The chaos that comes when illusions fade.
Tear it down, let the fire burn,
Through destruction, we return.

Every comfort, every lie,
Crumbles beneath a shattered sky.
No warning, no safe escape,
Only ashes in my wake.

Lightning strikes without a sound,
No way back, no solid ground.
Through the wreckage, through the fall,
Will I rise or lose it all?

I am The Tower, the storm, the break,
The chaos that comes when illusions fade.
Tear it down, let the fire burn,
Through destruction, we return.

What’s left standing, what remains?
From the ruin, I’ll rebuild again.
Through the fire, through the pain,
From the ashes, I’ll rise unchained.

I am The Tower, the storm, the break,
The chaos that comes when illusions fade.
Tear it down, let the fire burn,
Through destruction, we return.

The sky is clear, the night is still,
A world undone, a test of will.
From the wreckage, I have learned,
The Tower falls, but I return.
