Babylon

My mind is ease

To fight what it sees

As ignorance flees

Knowledge is Power

On Mercury's wings

The hummingbird sings

The message that stings

The final hour now

Lead us out of temptation

Guide us into salvation

Curse my hand

When the dark hides the light its a cloak for the

innocent

When the blood disappears its a phony absolution for

the sheep with no sight

The time is at hand

To nurture the land

To drink from the sand

Honor the seasons

The stories I've heard

Defaming the Word

Defining absurd

I know the reasons now

Save us from medication

Fill us with new sensations

Curse the land

When the dead walk the earth it's a sign for the

innocent

When the base turns to gold it's a secret that the

magic's hiding place is found out

My spirit's at ease

At one with the seas

I hear the decrees

Knowledge is Power

The voices are sweet

Till one day we'll meet

The end of deceit

The sacred hour now

Lead us out of temptation

Guide us into salvation

Curse my hand

When the dark hides the light its a cloak for the

innocent

When the blood disappears its a phony absolution for

the sheep with no sight

When the dead walk the earth it's a sign for the

innocent

When the base turns to gold it's a secret that the

magic's hiding place is found out
