Babylon Lyrics by Phrase

Babylon

2011

[Verse 1]
Yeah
I got a feeling that I'm rotten on the inside
A bad apple in a barrell full of good ones
More baggage than a carousel of lost love
This old heart won't travel like it would once
I should have caught the train all the way to Babylon
Instead of stopping at the bottle shop to get my babble on
And now I'm in the cell again, looking at my bloody hands
Surely there's some more to life than pissing on a divvy vans

[Hook]
My father tried to warn me
Life comes with ups and downs
No man can live forever
So make the most of now
Old man my heart is breaking
My bridge is burning now
And I don't know if I can keep this up
I'm thinking maybe I should leave this town

[Verse 2]
I've got the poison dad I need the remedy
Yeah I'm a fiend, I'm my own worst enemy
And the thrills I need seem few and far between
At a bar trying to remember how to start my dream
Like the broken motor scooter that I'm forced to ride
Through the sky like Luke, trying to keep the force inside
And Dad I'm looking, I'm looking
I'm trying to get a win
I bought this fucking ticket but they wouldn't let me in
And you know

[Hook]
My father tried to warn me
Life comes with ups and downs
No man can live forever
So make the most of now
Old man my heart is breaking
My bridge is burning now
And I don't know if I can keep this up
I'm thinking maybe I should leave this town

[Bridge]
Mini mini miny mo
How did everything I know
Disappear right before my eyes like a line of coke
Gotta be the habits or the rabbits in my back pocket
Eating through my case like it's cabbage [?]
I gotta make ends meet like a blind date
If they elope I can breathe, I can find space
I need the open air, spare me from the gravitron
Hook me up to helium and fly me up to Babylon

[Hook]
My father tried to warn me
Life comes with ups and downs
No man can live forever
So make the most of now
Old man my heart is breaking
My bridge is burning now
And I don't know if I can keep this up
I'm thinking maybe I should leave this town

My father tried to warn me
Life comes with ups and downs
No man can live forever
So make the most of now
Old man my heart is breaking
My bridge is burning now
And I don't know if I can keep this up
I'm thinking maybe I should leave this town

[Outro]
Ohhh, na na na na nahh
Na na na na nahh
Na na na na nahh
Ohhh, na na na na nahh
Na na na na nahh
Na na na na nahh
Ohhh, na na na na nahh
Na na na na nahh
Na na na na nahh
