On the Road to Babylon

Before the last leaves fall
Leave the crowd behind you
And, when we’re alone, watch me
You won’t get any answers
Along the roads of the world
Only my body can make you a God
Come near
Don’t look around you
The world is changing, the world is imploding
To advancing global madness
Oh, we’re back on the road to Babylon
We have raised another Babylon
And once again we are awaiting trial
We laid the foundations in the depths of the earth
And stone by stone w rose to the sky
Like Gods, lik Gods
Now, all things lapse
Once again
Only dreams remain
Like gardens suspended in the sky
Another Babylon
Oh, the circle closes once again
For thousands and thousands of years
We’re still on the road, on the road to Babylon
On the wave of fading time
Like the smell of gardens by the side of the road
Just a drop of beauty left behind
From the flow of the tide that rises and falls
Like human madness
Come, come close to me
Before the last leaves fall
And, when we’re alone, touch me
Another world of bleak skies
A suffering trans-humanity
Like swarming of metal bodies
Along the lines of destiny
For thousands and thousands of years
We’re still on the road, on the road to Babylon
On the wave of fading time
Like the smell of gardens, by the side of the road
