The Tower by Future Islands
Lyrics & Translation
English
Threw a bottle
Across the water
To someone who's thinking of me
There's a tower
In the ocean
Pouring through me
That's my will and testament
I, I, I am waiting on the other side, sigh
Looked out into everything and I lie
Tell myself, "it's nothing", when it's quite right
Everything grows stronger in the light
When a boy who played with razors
Met a girl who opened cages
All the birds flew through the graveyard
And their laughter was contagious
I, I, I am watching on the other side, sighs
Looked out into every, nil and nigh
Lie, tell myself it's darkest when it's quite bright
Everything grows stronger in the light
In the light, in the light
Standing at the sea and swallowing
Without you, beside you
But you knew
What I knew
I, I, I am waiting on the other side, sigh
Looked out into everything and I lie
Tell myself, "it's nothing", when it's quite right
Everything goes
Everything grows
I am watching, I am waiting
I am waiting, I'm not breaking
I lie, tell myself, "it's okay", when it's not quite
Everything grows stronger in the light

The Tower* (original Future Islands)
Threw a bottle
Across the water
To someone who's thinking of me
There's a tower
In the ocean
Pouring through me
That's my will and testament
I, I, I am waiting on the other side, sigh
Looked out into everything and I lie
Tell myself, "it's nothing", when it's quite right
Everything grows stronger in the light
When a boy who played with razors
Met a girl who opened cages
All the birds flew through the graveyard
And their laughter was contagious
I, I, I am watching on the other side, sighs
Looked out into every, nil and nigh
Lie, tell myself it's darkest when it's quite bright
Everything grows stronger in the light
In the light, in the light
Standing at the sea and swallowing
Without you, beside you
But you knew
What I knew
I, I, I am waiting on the other side, sigh
Looked out into everything and I lie
Tell myself, "it's nothing", when it's quite right
Everything goes
Everything grows
I am watching, I am waiting
I am waiting, I'm not breaking
I lie, tell myself, "it's okay", when it's not quite
Everything grows stronger in the light
The Tower (traducción LyricVerse Team)
Lancé una botella
A través del agua
A alguien que piensa en mí
Hay una torre
En el océano
Fluyendo a través de mí
Ese es mi testamento
Yo, yo, yo estoy esperando al otro lado, suspiro
Miré todo y miento
Me digo, "no es nada", cuando está bastante bien
Todo se hace más fuerte en la luz
Cuando un chico que jugaba con navajas
Conoció a una chica que abría jaulas
Todos los pájaros volaron por el cementerio
Y su risa era contagiosa
Yo, yo, yo estoy observando al otro lado, suspiros
Miré todo, nada y cerca
Miento, me digo que es más oscuro cuando es bastante brillante
Todo se hace más fuerte en la luz
En la luz, en la luz
De pie en el mar y tragando
Sin ti, a tu lado
Pero tú sabías
Lo que yo sabía
Yo, yo, yo estoy esperando al otro lado, suspiro
Miré todo y miento
Me digo, "no es nada", cuando está bastante bien
Todo va
Todo crece
Estoy observando, estoy esperando
Estoy esperando, no me estoy rompiendo
Miento, me digo, "está bien", cuando no lo está del todo
Todo se hace más fuerte en la luz
