Vienna Teng - The Tower [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

That one who survives by making the lives
Of others worthwhile
She's coming apart right before my eyes
The one that depends on the services she renders
To those who come knocking
She's seen too clearly what she can't be
What understanding defies

She says, "I need not to need
Or else a love with intuition
Someone who reaches out to my weakness
And won't let go
I need not to need
I've always been the tower
But now I feel like I'm the flower
Trying to bloom in snow."


She turns off the light, anticipating night
Falling tenderly around her
And watches the dusk
The words won't come
She carries the axe so convincingly
The fact is sometimes she believes it
The she can be happy the way things are
Be happy with the things she's done

And yet, I need not to need
Or else a love with intuition
Someone who reaches out to my weakness
And won't let go
I need not to need
I've always been the tower
But now I feel like I'm the flower
Trying to bloom in snow

Reach out, hold back
Where is safety?
Reach out, and hold back
Where is the one who can save me?
Where is the one, the one?
[x2]

I need not to need
Or else a love with intuition
Someone who reaches out to my weakness
And won't let go
I need not to need
I've always been the tower
But now I feel like I'm the flower
Trying to bloom in snow

I feel like I'm the flower
Trying to bloom in snow
The danger and the power
The friend and the foe
