Babylonia

This Is My Life

Babylonia


All you demanded 
Was your right to twinkle 
That's how you spent your life 
Creeping snakes 
Whispering "honey, I love you" 
May you rest in peace 

Now I see 
How quickly time's passing 
It's rushing over me 
We're fragile like roses 
Ignore the eternity 
The more I see 
The more I learn 
It's getting clearer and clearer to me 

That this is my life 
And I feel allowed 
To waste and to burn it out 
Crashing down 
Hang my fears 
This night's too good to last 
There's no one who can save me 

Cast all your tears 
On to me in the morning 
When I'm bare and numb 
I'm so disconnected 
Completely stranger 
Has life tricked me? 

Now I need 
Need to keep on running 
To get to somewhere else 
Could I ever believe in 
This living restlessly? 
The more I've searched 
The less I've found 
It's getting clearer and clearer to me 

That this is my life 
And I feel allowed 
To waste and to burn it out 
Crashing down 
Hang my fears 
This night's too good to last 
There's no one who can save me 
And this is my life 
And I feel allowed 
To ruin and to wreck it 
Falling down 
Hang my fears 
This night's too dark to last 
There's no one who can save me 

I wish I could fly away one day ....
