Lyrics
0:27This shining city built of gold a far cry from innocence
0:33There's more than meets the eye round here
0:35Look to the waters of the deep
0:38A city of evil
0:42There sat a seven-headed beast ten horns raised from his head
0:47A symbolic woman sits on his throne
0:50But hatered strips her and leaves her naked
0:54The Beast and the Harlot
1:00She's a dwelling place for demons
1:04She's a cage for every unclean spirit
1:08Every filthy bird and makes us drink
1:12The poisoned wine to fornicating with our kings
1:17Fallen now is Babylon the Great
2:00The city dressed in jewels and gold fine linen Myrrh and pearls
2:06Her plagues will come all at once as mourners watch her burn
2:11Destroyed in an hour
2:15Merchants and captains of the world sailors navigators too
2:21Will weep and mourn this loss with her sins piled to the sky
2:27The Beast and the Harlot
2:32She's a dwelling place for demons
2:37She's a cage for every unclean spirit
2:42Every filthy bird and makes us drink
2:45The poisoned wine to fornicating with our kings
2:50Fallen now is Babylon the Great
3:09The day has come for all us sinners
3:12If your not a servant you'll be struck to the ground
3:15Flee the burning greedy city
3:18Looking back on her to see there's nothing around
3:21I don't believe in fairytales and no one wants to go to Hell
3:24You made the wrong decision and it's easy to see
3:27Now if you wanna serve above or be a king below with us
3:30Your welcome to the city where your future is set forever
3:39She's a dwelling place for demons
3:44She's a cage for every unclean spirit
3:49Every filthy bird and makes us drink
3:51The poisoned wine to fornicating with our kings
3:57Fallen now is Babylon the Great
This shining city built of gold a far cry from innocence There's more than meets the eye round here Look to the waters of the deep A city of evil There sat a seven-headed beast ten horns raised from his head A symbolic woman sits on his throne But hatered strips her and leaves her naked The Beast and the Harlot She's a dwelling place for demons She's a cage for every unclean spirit Every filthy bird and makes us drink The poisoned wine to fornicating with our kings Fallen now is Babylon the Great The city dressed in jewels and gold fine linen Myrrh and pearls Her plagues will come all at once as mourners watch her burn Destroyed in an hour Merchants and captains of the world sailors navigators too Will weep and mourn this loss with her sins piled to the sky The Beast and the Harlot She's a dwelling place for demons She's a cage for every unclean spirit Every filthy bird and makes us drink The poisoned wine to fornicating with our kings Fallen now is Babylon the Great The day has come for all us sinners If your not a servant you'll be struck to the ground Flee the burning greedy city Looking back on her to see there's nothing around I don't believe in fairytales and no one wants to go to Hell You made the wrong decision and it's easy to see Now if you wanna serve above or be a king below with us Your welcome to the city where your future is set forever She's a dwelling place for demons She's a cage for every unclean spirit Every filthy bird and makes us drink The poisoned wine to fornicating with our kings Fallen now is Babylon the Great
