1. Plagues of Babylon (7:47)
We lie in wait
time is drawing near
earth crisis is all too clear
the human virus starting to awake
so me must manipulate
we can't accept this human threat
the power structure is intact
as gods on earth we will forsake
we must release the plague
so if you're asking yourself why
your eyes are blind to the raging storm
will they cleanse the earth of humanity
unleash the plagues of babylon
compliance
submission
cowards led astray
traitors
liars
deceivers have their way
"And this shall be the plague that which the gods will strike all the peoples that wage war against them, their flesh will rot while standing on their feet, their eyes will rot in their sockets, and their tongues will rot in their mouths."
there's no escape
they feed from our hands
our minions plot
as they make their stand
as gods on earth
we have foreseen
we'll make the peasants bleed
so if you're asking yourself why
your eyes are blind to the raging storm
will they cleanse the earth of humanity
unleash the plagues of babylon
time is drawing near
earth crisis is all too clear
the human virus starting to awake
so me must manipulate
we can't accept this human threat
the power structure is intact
as gods on earth we will forsake
we must release the plague
so if you're asking yourself why
your eyes are blind to the raging storm
will they cleanse the earth of humanity
unleash the plagues of babylon
compliance
submission
cowards led astray
traitors
liars
deceivers have their way
"And this shall be the plague that which the gods will strike all the peoples that wage war against them, their flesh will rot while standing on their feet, their eyes will rot in their sockets, and their tongues will rot in their mouths."
there's no escape
they feed from our hands
our minions plot
as they make their stand
as gods on earth
we have foreseen
we'll make the peasants bleed
so if you're asking yourself why
your eyes are blind to the raging storm
will they cleanse the earth of humanity
unleash the plagues of babylon
