Lyrics

Hearts of darkness and hate
O evil, oblivion your fate
O betrayer, I come a war without end
My enemy's enemy is my friend
Mankind becomes the whore
Temples are empty, no law
False religions shall rise
Flags of scarlet shall fly
O destroyer of worlds
Babylon
Babylon
Written by: Jaz Coleman, Kevin Walker, Paul Raven
