Babylon

There's a place our hearts fall to
When we're weak, when we're sore
There's a world we all run to
When we can't go on anymore

And when we're tired of turning pages
Watching people from our cages
Organize and then rearrange
We're trigger-happy with our sin
We've lost all the adrenaline
And it changes, oh, it changes

So we empty all of our troubles in Babylon
We drown in a river of gold 'til our worry's all gone
We think sleeping in castles and seven course meals
Will repair what we've broke, it'll numb what we feel
But we're wrong, 'cause in all, treasure can't heal our faults

Trapped in walls of an income
Earned in sweat, isn't that nice?
Prison bars made of platinum
Made the bed, paid the price

We trade our souls for diamond rings
We try to sell all of the things
We loved a while ago for no reason
We poison water just to cope
We're hanging from a silver rope
Not breathing, oh, not breathing

So we empty all of our troubles in Babylon
We drown in a river of gold 'til our worry's all gone
We think sleeping in castles and seven course meals
Will repair what we've broke, it'll numb what we feel
But we're wrong, 'cause in all, treasure can't heal our faults

Docked, locked away, in a safe, a safe full of hate
Open your eyes and see past the sapphire lies

So we empty all of our troubles in Babylon
We drown in a river of gold 'til our worry's all gone
We think sleeping in castles and seven course meals
Will repair what we've broke, it'll numb what we feel
But we're wrong, 'cause in all, treasure can't heal our faults

Oh no
But we're wrong, 'cause in all, treasure can't heal our faults
