Lyrics
Babylon
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
These walls are caving in
You're paying for your sins
Over and then again
All within lurid lands
The gates are opening
You're melting in the sand
What planet are you on?
What constellation?
You're floating like a ghost
Out into the unknown
What planet are you on?
Cosmic phenomenon
Stars by the millions
Oh holy, golden Sun
To the gates of Babylon
To the gates of Babylon
Dreaming and lost alone
Far from your mother's home
The madness in your bones
It's boiling in your blood
And endless sky above
These deserts that you roam
What planet are you on?
What constellation?
You're floating like a ghost
Out here in the unknown
What planet are you on?
Cosmic phenomenon
Stars by the millions
Oh holy, golden Sun
To the gates of Babylon
To the gates of Babylon
To the gates of Babylon
What planet are you on? (the gates of Babylon, the gates of Babylon)
What constellation? (the gates of Babylon, the gates of Babylon)
You're floating like a ghost (the gates of Babylon, the gates of Babylon)
Out into the unknown (the gates of Babylon)
To the gates of Babylon
To the gates of Babylon
To the gates of Babylon
To the gates of Babylon
To the gates of Babylon
