Babel's Tower

In terrible silence you stood
 At the world's end
 And you crawled into - into the sun
 Blinded by the fires
 That seared your heart
 And the seething tongues of the lies we became
 And I sat in Babel's tower
 And I judged the world
 And I said I spoke the language
 Of saints and sinners
 But I preached that the world was flat
 And slipped beneath the cracks
 In horror I strode to the world's end
 Saw some torn by hunger
 Others by steel
 But by the bitter fortune
 We cursed the heathen men and holy
 Yet found no relief
 And we sat in Babel's tower
 And we fought over the world
 And I never spoke the language
 Of your saints and my sinners
 Of men nor beast
 Who roamed this flat earth
 And we sat in judgement
 In Bable's Tower
 And we piled the books of the dead
 Showed in palace the books of the dead
 Liars tongues they seethe in fire
 At the end of harsh white lies
 We set the world to rights
 In Bable's Tower
 Yet I awoke in the same black spirit state
 We are awoke again
 In Bable's Tower
 Showed by centurion
 In Bable's Tower
