I must have stood for hours
|
The mist of dawn still rising
|
Brushing from my face
|
Cold tears of finally knowing
|
The world that we had twisted
|
The years of strength and glory
|
Were wicked and obscene
|
And there we stood so proud
|
What legends we must be
|
Really something to behold Lord
|
So irresponsible
|
With the powers of creation
|
A princess crowned in jewels
|
Robed in the finest cloth
|
Dauntlessly invincible
|
So perfect so unreal
|
|
In one great moment judgements fallen
|
Babylon no longer there
|
Gone are her streets her giant towers
|
Disappeared into thin air
|
Don't ever cry just remember
|
|
It must have been my mood
|
I'm usually much stronger now
|
I know there's just one way
|
And this is how it has to be
|
There was poison in our thoughts
|
And there was hatred in our eyes
|
Suddenly something came
|
Something made it right
|
We purged our hearts and souls
|
And we saw through children's eyes
|
Not stifled by the pain
|
Not blinded by our
|
Human nature don't you see at all
|
The wisdom of our suffering
|
The lies behind our ways
|
The reasons for the end
|
|
From the moment I was raptured
|
Babylonia disappeared
|
I now return here a survivor
|
The rest have vanished to thin air
|
Don't ever cry just remember
|
|
The wind blows cold tonight
|
No lamplights from no windows
|
I am sure enough alone
|
And I am sure enough alive
|
So through eternity
|
The gift of light gets passed along
|
to those of us who saw
|
What the rest could never see
|
Born to a fallen world
|
Longing for a morning star
|
Held on high
|
For me
|
As this vision comes to close
|
The last footsteps ever wonder here
|
They echo in my mind
|
Never to return
|
|
All is done and slowly fading
|
Babylon she once stood there
|
I walked her streets I climbed her mountains
|
I disappear into thin air
|
Don't ever cry just remember
|
