To sum it up, I would like to quote a line from The Beatles' version of Matchbox sung by Ringo Starr;
I'm an old poor boy
And I'm a long way from home

Story behind the song
This one is a simple ghost story, which was inspired by my visit to the actual Tower of London in London, England. You know the old cliché? Encounter of seeing an apparition of "A lady in white". Although this is Metal, there are no guitars here; all riffs are played on a bass guitar.

TOWER OF LONDON
Copyright 2014, Tim Black
From palace to pub, I've been roaming
Yesterday, down from Hyde
I thought I saw her standing there
Ghost of what, she used to be
Angel of darkness, demon of light?
Fog was descending, blocking the sky
Feeling of dread, swept over me
Suffocating, it was harder to breathe
At the......
Tower of London
Tower of London
Hands of ice, absent life
Blood was to curdle, demonized
I thought I knew, the meaning of fear
Till she touched me, on the shoulder
At the.....
Tower of London
Distant bell, premonition
Shadows are falling, night is falling
Lady in white, apparition
Rain is falling, falling down on me
I can hear her calling, hear her calling me
