This shining city built of gold |
|
A far cry from innocence |
|
There's more than meets the eye 'round here |
|
Look to the waters of the deep |
|
A city of evil |
|
There sat a seven-headed beast |
|
Ten horns raised from his head |
|
Symbolic woman sits on his throne |
|
But hatred strips her and leaves her naked |
|
The beast and the harlot |
|
She's a dwelling place for demons |
|
She's a cage for every unclean spirit, every filthy bird |
|
And makes us drink the poisoned wine to fornicating with our kings |
|
Fallen now is Babylon the great |
|
The city dressed in jewels and gold |
|
Fine linen, myrrh and pearls |
|
Her plagues will come all at once |
|
As her mourners watch her burn |
|
Destroyed in an hour |
|
Merchants and captains of the world |
|
Sailors navigators too |
|
Will weep and mourn this loss |
|
With her sins piled to the sky |
|
The beast and the harlot |
|
She's a dwelling place for demons |
|
She's a cage for every unclean spirit every filthy bird |
|
And makes us drink the poisoned wine to fornicating with our kings |
|
Fallen now is Babylon the great |
|
The day has come for all us sinners |
|
If you're not a servant, you'll be struck to the ground |
|
Flee the burning, greedy city |
|
Looking back on her to see there's nothin' around |
|
I don't believe in fairy tales and no one wants to go to Hell |
|
We've made the wrong decision and it's easy to see |
|
Now if you wanna serve above or be a king below with us |
|
You're welcome to the city where your future is set forever |
|
She's a dwelling place for demons |
|
She's a cage for every unclean spirit every filthy bird |
|
And makes us drink the poisoned wine to fornicating with our kings |
|
Fallen now is Babylon the great |
|
She's a dwelling place for demons |
|
She's a cage for every unclean spirit every filthy bird |
|
And makes us drink the poisoned wine to fornicating with our kings |
|
Fallen now is Babylon the great |
