Kingdom in the Shadow

I see a light Now descend from Saturn and sky It beckons us with all that we've lost And signifies the past We had it all Built our temples taller Before the fall Rise Babylon Downwind from the smoke Ignorant we are blinded and choked The patriot is hanged while obscured Just as love will lead the way We had it all Built our temples taller Before the fall Rise Babylon We had it all Built our temples taller Then came the fall Burn Babylon Stark silence Hear the ghost of ruin Ashes and dust Glory to rust I hear the ghost of ruin Kill the God Of nations of Those worthy of a song City rots The worthy are forgotten Learned and the strong And I was never one Still you fail to see A creature torments me With premonitions of the end A kingdom in the shadow Of all that we forgot Our memory is ever short A kingdom in a story A calculated plot Adversary center stage The chronicler is lost Fear the God Eclipse the Sun And swallow all the light Burn Babylon
