chorus
around
around and around
around
around and around
follow the staircase
around
around and around
around
around and around
up the winding stairs
verse #1
one man, one mistake, one servant gone wrong
his task was to serve, be straight and be strong
(to) resist all temptations, until his last breath
one servant is climbing the tower of death
verse #2
one man, one mistake, his day of doom came
a hot summer day, a day full of shame
his flesh it was weak, his eyes wouldn’t see
(the) mistake he would make, no saint he would be
verse #3
one man, one mistake, and without any doubt
he is climbing the tower, his only way out
the stairs bring him clos er to the highest of all
the one that he worships, he answers his call
verse #4
one man, one mistake, in silence he cries
and no one who sees the tears in his eyes
and many will spit on his lonely tomb
one servant is climbing the tower of doom
