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.
Infidels
In a broken time
Our fathers bled the ground
Chained and bound
Castaway
Should the remnant die?
My hopes were growing numb
Overcome
She bewitched
With a Siren's cry
She beckoned, "Come and learn"
Is there no return?
CHORUS
Babylon
Born in your walls
Bred in your will
Captive until
I heard the heavens cry
Babylon
This is goodbye
Aftershocks
And the sorrow grows
Some make their slow descent
Some repent
Rescue me
These idols lie
I cannot bear the shame
Make this desert rain
(CHORUS)
Make this desert rain...
(CHORUS)
