Babylon is Falling

BABYLON IS FALLING

© 2024 Kevin Lucas and Grant Maloy Smith

I look out beyond

The smoke and the fire

silhouettes of you burn like desire

It's hot in paradise

the ashes of your soul fall like snowflakes

And there’s nothing I can do

there’s nothing I can do

Babylon is fallin’, fallin’ down tonight

Babylon the Great is falling down

It's been so long

since your hand went cold

the fire in your eyes

shivering and cold

Thursday, you’re smiling

Friday, you’re gone

Memories of hospitals

And fighting with this song

With this song

Babylon is fallin’, fallin’ down tonight

Babylon the Great is falling down

Babylon is fallin’, fallin’ down tonight

Babylon the Great is falling down

Babylon is fallin’, fallin’ down tonight

Babylon the Great is falling down

Quench your last fire

with tears from your eyes

this whole world is burning

from here to the Nile

God’s stars come down

They fall from Heaven’s grace

Shine on your life story

They shine on your face

Babylon is fallin’, fallin’ down tonight

Babylon the Great is falling down

Babylon is fallin’, fallin’ down tonight

Babylon the Great is falling down

Black horse horizon

Death comes to town

Our spirits are rising when our

Bodies fall down

Everyone drinks in

Their last glass of wine

Everyone faces

Their last hour of time

Babylon is fallin’, fallin’ down tonight

Babylon the Great is falling down

Babylon is fallin’, fallin’ down tonight

Babylon the Great is falling down
