Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Take my body, pull it down
Be the words upon my tongue
Oh sweetest queen of harlots
Let me taste your praise
[Verse 2]
Let me drown in you, let me feast
Let me ride your seven headed beast
Let me strip before you and step back in your gaze
[Verse 3]
And I know there's a night
At the edge of this light
I'm coming home, sweet Babylon
I'm coming home
[Verse 4]
Abomination of hearts and sea
Rain your terror down on me
Untame the blueness in these eyes
I'll be the shadow by your side
[Verse 5]
Oh goddess of unholy things
Bring me all your beauty brings
Show this wretched weak apostate where his gods reside
[Verse 6]
And I know there's a night
At the edge of this light
I'm coming home, sweet Babylon
I'm coming home
[Verse 7]
I bet your hills remember, your towers ring
All the tunes we used to sing
Let me try them on my lips again
You know I never miss a note
[Verse 8]
Oh dirty mother of whore and thief
I went away but time is brief
Let me spend all that is left with you
Until I have to float
[Verse 9]
And I know there's a night
At the edge of this light
I'm coming home, sweet Babylon
I'm coming home
[Verse 10]
And I know there's a night
At the edge of this light
I'm coming home, sweet Babylon
I'm coming home
[Verse 11]
I'm coming home, sweet Babylon
I'm coming home
[Verse 12]
I'm coming home, sweet Babylon
I'm coming home
