Babylon

Steve Taylor


Infidels
In a broken time
Our fathers bled the ground
Chained and bound 

Castaway
Should the remnant die?
My hopes were growing numb
Overcome 

She bewitched
With a Siren's cry
She beckoned, "Come and learn"
Is there no return? 

CHORUS 

Babylon
Born in your walls
Bred in your will
Captive until
I heard the heavens cry
Babylon
This is goodbye 

Aftershocks
And the sorrow grows
Some make their slow descent
Some repent 

Rescue me
These idols lie
I cannot bear the shame
Make this desert rain 

(CHORUS) 

Make this desert rain... 

(CHORUS)
