Оригинальный текст песни Babylon
Gather close, circle round
One last curtain call for the days of old
The story of the summer children
Of the lies we all believed in
Born and raised in a golden age
As century ends in the words they say:
"No more white or black
No more east or west
We baptise our unity
In the death of their evil empire"
We searched the sky to see contrails above our heads
Too young to ask them why war has never left
Sons of a dying mother
Turned against each other
From football fields to the tiger's nest
To prove again which god was still the best
The day we wished we had never lived
Live on our tv screens
So Fear entered our life through the front door
And nothing would've been the same again
Pouring rain in an endless pond of providence
Heaven lays in the swollen eyes of the innocents
Demons were chased
In the dark of their dens
An illusion turning
Blue into black
The hunt survives the hunted
The hunt deforms the hunter
Babylon
Babylon
There's always one more head to cut,
One more fabulist glorified
Heaven lays in the eyes of the innocents
But they are buried underneath
The myths we laced so masterfully with pride and
Everything we left behind
The ones that one day will be living here
Will ever cry for me?
The stones casted by whom without sin
Stays too high for his lungs to breath
Sometimes I wonder
Will God ever forgive us for what we have done to each other
Then I look around and I realize
God left this place a long time ago
