the city dressed in jewels and gold fine linen myrrh and pearls
her plagues will all come at once as her mouners watch her burn
destroyed in a hour
merchants and captains of the world saliors and navigators too
will weep and mourn this loss with her sins piled to the sky
the beast and the harlot

chorus

shes a dwelling place 4 demons
shes a cage 4 every unclean spirt every filthy bird
and make us drink the piosoned wine to fornicating with our kings
fallen now is babylon the great

bridge

the day has come for all us sinners
if your not a servent you`ll be struck to the ground
flee the burning greedy city
look`n back on her to see nothing around

i dont belive in fariytales and no one wants to go to hell
we`ve made wrong decision and its easy to see
now if you wanna serve above or be a king below us
your welcome to the city where your future is set forever

chorus

shes a dwelling place 4 demons
shes a cage 4 every unclean spirt every filthy bird
and make us drink the piosoned wine to fornicating with our kings
fallen now is babylon the great

chorus

shes a dwelling place 4 demons
shes a cage 4 every unclean spirt every filthy bird
and make us drink the piosoned wine to fornicating with our kings
fallen now is babylon the great

Unholy Confessions

Verse:
I'll try
She said as he walked away.
Try not to lose you.
Two vibrant hearts could change
Nothing tears the being more than deception.
unmasked fear.
I'll be here waiting tested and secure

Nothing hurts my world.
Just affects the ones around me.
When sin's deep in my blood.
You'll be the one to fall.

Chorus:
I wish I could be the one.
The one who won't care at all.
But being the one on the stand.
I know the way to go.
No one's guiding me.
When time soaked with blood turns its back.
I know it's hard to fall.
Confided in me was your heart.
I know it's hurting you, but it's killing me.

Verse:
Nothing will last in this life.
Our time is spent constructing.
Now you're perfecting a world... meant to sin.
Constrict your hands around me.
Squeeze till I cannot breathe.
This air tastes dead inside me.
Contribute to our plague.
Break all your promises.
Tear down this steadfast wall.
Constaints are useless here.
Tasting salvations near.
UHHH!

Nothing hurts my world.
Just affects the ones around me.
When sin's deep in my blood.
You'll be the one to fall.

Chorus:
I wish I could be the one.
The one who won't care at all.
But beign the one on the stand.
I know the way to go, no one's guiding me.
When time soaded with blood turns its back.
I know it's hard to fall.
Confided in me was your heart.
I know it's hurting you, but it's killing me.

Forgotten Faces

Forgotten faces.
Lost in yesterdays realm.
Drained with confusion.
Where did it all go?
Look into the past, look into their faces.
Never, the thought of being time fucked.
But now they're all gone and all that's left is this blank faced picture.
Ninety percent, nothing was done, nothing accomplished,
coasting through life didn't seize the day.
No one ever realized that they're already dead.
By the time you realize, you'll be dead too.
Without another chance to save the world,
these things they're gone, your gone, forgotten.
Now your face in my picture frame. It's gone, forever.
Right before my very eyes.
And just when I thought I made light of things.
It slips away, into darkness.
My life passes now I see.
Just what this world does hold for me.
It's getting hard, harder to breathe.
Am I out of time is that what this means?
Well that's what it means.
That's what it means, you and me try to breathe.
Now you. Realize.
Your life, flies by.
Now I. Realize.
My life, I die.

Almost easy

I feel insane every single time I'm asked to compromise
Cause I'm afraid, I’m stuck in my ways
And that’s the way it stays
So how long did I expect love to outweigh ignorance
By that look on your face I may force the scale to tip

I'm not insane, I'm not insane
I'm not insane, I’m not...
Not insane

(I'm not)
Come back to me, it's almost easy
(Sad at all)
Come back again, it's almost easy

Shame pulses through my heart
From the things I’ve done to you
It’s hard to face, but the fact remains that
This is nothing new

I left you bound and tied with suicidal memories
Selfish beneath the skin
But deep inside I'm not insane.

I'm not insane, I'm not insane.
I'm not insane, I'm not...
Not insane.

(I'm not)
Come back to me, it's almost easy
(Sad at all)
Come back again, it's almost easy
(You learned your lesson)
Come back to me, it's almost easy
(But first you fall)
Come back again, it's almost easy

Now that I’ve lost you it kills me to say
(Hurts to say)
I try to hold on as you slowly slip away.
I’m losing the fight.
Treated you so wrong, now let me make it right.
(Make it all right)

I'm not insane, I'm not insane. (chuckling)
I'm not insane, I'm not...
Not insane.

(I'm not)
Come back to me, it's almost easy
(Sad at all)
Come back again, it's almost easy
(You learned your lesson)
Come back to me, it's almost easy
(But still you fall)
Come back again, it's almost easy

Critical Acclaim

Shh, be quiet, you might piss somebody off,
Like me motherfucker, you've been at it for too long
While you feed off all this insecurity
You stand in front of me and bite the hand that feeds

(Self-righteousness is wearing thin)
Lies inside your head your best friend
(I'll bleed but not for fellow man)
Broken glass, your fake reflection

Telling them its all for something real
Don't forsake the words you speak
You've gone too far, acclaim

So how does it feel to know that someones kid in the heart of America
Has blood on their hands, fighting to defend your rights
So you can maintain the lifestyle that insults this family's existence?
Well, where I'm from we have a special salute we wave high in the air
Towards all those pompous asses who spend their days pointing fingers

Fuck you

Shh, be quiet, you might piss somebody off
Like the heartbeat of this country when antagonized too long
I'll be damned if you count me in
As part of your generous hypocrisy collected in a maze

(Tabloid gossip, we want less real)
There's no need for us to bury you
(Selfish agenda, once again)
Right this way, deter your own grave

Telling them its all for something real
Don't forsake the words you speak
You've gone too far, acclaim

All the way from the east to the west we got this high society looking down on their very foundation.
Constantly reminding us that our actions are the cause of all their problems.
Pointing their fingers in every direction.
Blaming their own nation for who wins elections.
They never contributed a fucking thing to the country they love to criticize.

Excuse the obscene
Ignore the untrue
Depictions we see
Try and get through
And many mistakes can hurt
I’m not the last, but I sure ain’t the first!

Shh, be quiet, you might piss somebody off.

Self righteousness is wearing thin (lies inside your head, your best friend)
I’ll bleed but not for fellow man (broken glass, your fake reflection)

Telling them its all for something real
Don't forsake the words you speak
You've gone too far, acclaim
