Babylon

They didn't build this by their hands alone
The city has a life of it's own
Who's in control?
I don't want to know
I couldn't keep all my protections strong
In the gardens of Babylon
Why did I go?

The horse was bucking running down the coast
I'm just a kid who got a bit too close
Now all I see are ghosts
I don't want to know
Can I be a traveler on the road?
Can I start to find the trail back home?
Why did I go?

There's a time for wine
And a for feast
A time for passions
To be released
But when every day is an unending stream
Flux and change can't change their ways
And Babylon has dug her grave
Don't catch me please inside the city gates
Don't catch me please inside the city gates

How much city is a garden worth?
Is there a way to make a bargain work
And cover the earth?
I don't want to know
Cause I couldn't keep all my protections strong
In the gardens of Babylon
Why did I go?

There's a time for war
And a for plague
A time for sickness
A time for death
Who will fight for me when it's me and them?
Don't watch the watchmen watch your walls
Die to yourself and join their cause
Don't let me fear the one who runs the grave
Don't let me fear the one who runs the grave
