Babylon

Day comes, the vultures devour you
Bare in the road
In your gardens
And I'll be
Caught in my treasures
And fire

So none but the damned
May prize them

They're all I leave behind
Oh, were they even mine

So is it our time to tell them

Or is it my chest

Why does my heart not follow

Her to the end

She calls me up sometimes

Says I hope you're doing fine









I'm looking out from your cold tower


Into a past horizon

And there is light aloft



My lady love

I built myself on the wall

I built myself on the wall

When it was just us

When it was just us

We built ourselves a tower
We built ourselves a tower




And is it our time this hour?


Or is it my chest?



What does my heart now follow?




Her to the end?


And then burn down the rain of arrows







I want to love tomorrow, but I'm not sure
Oh Babylon you fade, your walls you're built to break
And I never came to stay, but I'm losing every way
Around you
Oh Babylon you fade, your walls you're built to break
And I never came to stay, but I'm losing every way

Around you
