Babylon the Great Lyrics by Harlots (US)

The Woman You Saw Is the Great City That Rules Over the Kings of the Earth

2004

I am nailing down all I need for keeping the coffin tight
\nBuried you deep in the sludge of my lungs
\nCouldn't breathe without the pain in my side
\nI feel the time is finally right to pour warm blood on the night
\nDrown in it
\nThis is the cold sun that will not fight
\nAll the old brightness is bathed in red light
\nAll the old brightness is bathed in red light
\nDrink shamelessly
\n
\nWhen all hope will fail and all you have is yourself
\nWill you abandon all hope
\nTake the road less traveled
\nWhere you see no end, take the road less traveled
\nWhere instinct is your only friend
\n
\nWould you stand alone in a fight without arms
\nMaking love to a serenade sung from the broken jaws of the angels
\nDeafened choking beauty you lay serene
\nYou taste just like poison
\nI can't kiss you when your teeth are falling down my throat
\nI love you sucking blood from my broken waste bond
\nYou lay serene just like as in autumn
\n
\nRotting, I'm caught between the chapters of life
\nI cannot find the words to speak
\nI will gut you with the ink of right and wrong
\nYour power consumes you
\nThis is where I walk away
\nThis is where I fall
\nTrapped by a sickness with no cure
\nA hole with no end no escape in this fiction there is no true love
\nEvery action ends in consequence
\nDeath we all die alone
\nI will shut connections between us
\nThis is my last attempt to fall asleep forever
\nI renounce myself from dreams showing my second face
\nAt youth I feel as frail as an old man
\nWe are pagans with no ambition
\nHeavy hearts will wear us down\n\n
