Lyrics for Babylon Fell (Jade Serpent)

Lights have faded - Euphoria is dead Past and present - Exalt of the weird Chimerias petrified - Eclipse and suspicion Deafened stream - Babylon fell Distraction and envy, Babylon fell Festal perishing, Babylon fell Dreams drift in the frozen wind And mysteries are reborn We rose from sand and stone To follow the light's allure Tears drift in the shadows sleep Turn innocence into excess Fragments of a dying world And destiny lies beneath Sceptres of bombast - Tracks into myth Fetish and feud - Dance of recesses Fierce laughter - Banned into stone Eyes of guilt - Covered by sand
