Babylon

Babylon, day comes the vultures devour you Baring the rot in your gardens And I'll be coating my treasures in fire So none but the damned may prize them They're all I leave behind Oh were they even mine So is it our time that's hollow Or is it my chest Why does my heart not follow Her to the end She calls me up sometimes Says hope you're doing fine Babylon, I'm looking out from your cold tower Into a past horizon And there's lady love My lady love I built myself from her warmth I built myself from her warmth When it was just us When it was just us We built ourselves a tower We built ourselves a tower And is it our time that's hollow Or is it my chest Why does my heart not follow Her to the end Bring down the rain of arrows Take the defense I wanna love tomorrow But I love what's left Oh Babylon you fake Your walls are built to break And I never came to stay But I'm losing every way around you
