By the way, it was live record in studio for the album. This song like Every Breath You Take by The Police, if you don't listen carefully, it's very romantic. Johannes mentioned that he wrote this after a weekend with his girlfriend. About Rapunzel too. You have understood the message very correctly. But there are strange people who think that this is a song about 9/11. Tower was redesigned kinda 20 times and had to sound like a Tenacious D or Iron Maiden. But it returned to the original demo sound almost unchanged - as we know it now.
Avatar is a fantastic band! Tower is an underrated song by them, probably his best clean vocals at the time. If you are willing to dive into the deep end with this band, may I recommend 'Bloody Angel', 'When The Snow Lies Red' or 'Hail The Apocalypse'
