AVATAR - Tower (Piano Version) [Official Music Video]

This version of Tower became a special moment in a very special period of our lives. It feels natural to use it as a way to stop and look back for just a moment before we move forward with full force. It's a thank you to everyone who stands by our side and makes the magic happen.

TOWER (PIANO VERSION) LYRICS
You look like you need a friend
Let me in and we'll pretend
Light some candles, do not cry
I'll sing you a lullaby

You've lost your key and cannot leave
I'll play with you and make believe
I'll keep you safe with all my power
I will build you a tower

In every stone I'll carve your name
Nothing will be quite the same
Laughter at the midnight hour
In our own little tower

Ashes paint our bedroom gray
These shall be our finest days
As I pledge, my precious flower
Keep you safe in a tower

Stay inside and dream of towers
Wake up all alone
Welcome home
All alone you count the hours
Right where you belong
Welcome home

Don't be scared, you won't be hurt
I promise that I'll keep my word
Just behave and we can play
Just do everything I say

Do not speak and do not think
I will give you everything
Everything within my power
I will bring to your tower

Stay inside and dream of towers
Wake up all alone
Welcome home
All alone you count the hours
Right where you belong
Welcome home

See your home on the horizon
What you were will fade away
Every day of every season
Is devoured by the gray

Stay inside and dream of towers
Wake up all alone
Welcome home
All alone you count the hours
Right where you belong
Welcome home

Please make this available on Spotify, this version was very, very, very necessary.

[MontyTheMoustacheMan]

Two thousand views in twenty minutes. Avatar is, BY FAR, the most underrated band I've ever heard in my life. Who else thinks that they could sell out the biggest arenas in the world?

[jeremiahjordan]

I am proud to be an Avatar Citizen 🤘🏼🖤🤘🏼💯

[moichou]

This band changed my life. For real... And I'm an adult, not a drama teen. They brought me the strength to to embrace the freak I am.

[ragoodie]

Literally teared up. Johannes has spoken in interviews about wanting to produce music in this style. Incredible. Epic way to bring back an old song. Please make this available on Spotify.

[Missunderstood]

While I love the original version, I've always felt that the live piano version was much more powerful. I'm so glad to finally get an official version.

[ava.lanche]

I gotta say, I think I prefer this version over the original. It's hauntingly beautiful. Well done.

[briflemingo]

I HAVE BEEN WANTING THIS FOR YEARS. YES.

[LynchR-]

Johannes is incredible. Avatar is amazing.

[joannaporebska]

It's been years since I've heard Tower. I've always listened to this song at my father's. I hated staying there, I hated his whole family with the exception of my step sister; I still feel sorry for her having to live there full-time.

What helped me get through those hellish days and nights of mental abuse was your music. Avatar music. Tower was the song that made survival easier.

And here I am. No contact with my father since 2020 or 2019, I don't really remember. I am happy but tired, I still struggle because of PTSD.

Avatar, thank you for being there with me. You guys are legends

[kikij]

I have no friends. After half of my family died and I lost my home and pets I also lost all the friends i had, after a childhood of lonliness and searching for family I had it and lost it all to death, drugs, and hate. Now I have found a place where I have no friends or family. This song reached out to me. It makes me feel better. I cant explain why. Thank you Avatar. I love you Johannes. Thank you for creating something that creates a bridge and abates the the lonliness and isolation.

[králíkus-bh]

This is just my comfort song. I dont care what it is about, but it feels like a warm hug, like a presence of somebody who is here for me, like a lulaby

[blakkno]

I really want to see an animated video for ''Train'... Dark and twisted.
That would round off DDD cycle perfectly 🤘🤘🤘

[sammy]

Reminds me of my childhood abuser. The grooming and manipulation, the isolation, my gradual loss of self. Always loved the lyrics- there aren't many songs which capture those feelings as poetry- and this version elevates them even more. Thank you Avatar for making this masterpiece.

[Aazel]

Acoustic album incoming? I doubt it but would be great. Ageless avatar classics that could get a new fresh coat of paint and revive the excitement of the first time we listened to them

[turtlestew]

I really think Avatar should release an acoustic album! It'll definitely be another masterpiece! 🤘😎🤘

[recordmixing]

This session was so much fun! Also love the combined video and am proud to have helped with this surprise. Happy holidays!🤘

[senkisemmi]

❤️This isn't just a song, it's a masterpiece🔥His Iyrics are incredibly deep. His voice carries them right to your bone marrow🖤Darn this song realy touched my feelings❤️This song hits my soul in a way words cannot describe🤘🏻Avatar pure emotions❤️🖤

[laurenevatt]

An absolutely beautiful version of my favorite Avatar song 🖤🖤🖤

[jonas]

3:52 - Goosebumps! Amazing...

I am so glad that could hear them live.
It was my brothers' first metal concert and I tell him: "Listen carefuly. Cause you won't see a better show in a lifetime."
