Babylon
The chapter that never should have been
See the stories that are written
It came before I knew it
And I heard Wrath say
Come down and sit
In the dust now
What if I told you
Nothing you speak is true
Lay on the ground
Of what you once called home
Virgin daughter of Babylon
You can only rule for so long
Let the pieces remain untouched
Have them speak of what's to come
How many more lies
You have yet to find
Come down and sit
In the dust now
You have lost all you own
There is no throne
Lay on the ground
Of what you once called home
What was good to you
Was farthest from the truth
A history of broken backs
A city stained with red and black
Now we fight over what is mine
But who still owns their mind?
A history of broken backs
A city stained with red and black
Now we fight over what is mine
But who still owns their mind?
Come down and sit
In the dust
Come lay
On the ground
Don't mourn the ruins
Cry for those under them
Sit on the ground
Cry for those under them
Babylon
Come down and sit
In the dust now
You have lost all you own
There is no throne
Lay on the ground
Of what you once called home
What was good to you
Was farthest from the truth
See the stories that are written
It came before I knew it
And I heard Wrath say
Come down and sit
In the dust now
What if I told you
Nothing you speak is true
Lay on the ground
Of what you once called home
Virgin daughter of Babylon
You can only rule for so long
Let the pieces remain untouched
Have them speak of what's to come
How many more lies
You have yet to find
Come down and sit
In the dust now
You have lost all you own
There is no throne
Lay on the ground
Of what you once called home
What was good to you
Was farthest from the truth
A history of broken backs
A city stained with red and black
Now we fight over what is mine
But who still owns their mind?
A history of broken backs
A city stained with red and black
Now we fight over what is mine
But who still owns their mind?
Come down and sit
In the dust
Come lay
On the ground
Don't mourn the ruins
Cry for those under them
Sit on the ground
Cry for those under them
Babylon
Come down and sit
In the dust now
You have lost all you own
There is no throne
Lay on the ground
Of what you once called home
What was good to you
Was farthest from the truth
