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
Symbolic woman sits on his thrown but hatred 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 her 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.
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 nothin' around.
I don't believe in fairy tales
And no one wants to go to Hell,
But we made the wrong decision
And it's easy to see.
Now if you want to serve above or be a king below with us
your
Welcome to the city where your future is set forever.
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
Symbolic woman sits on his thrown but hatred strips her and
leaves her naked.

Welcome to the city where your future is set forever.
