Avenged Sevenfold - Beast & The Harlot (Album Version) lyrics
rate meThis shinin' city built of gold, a far cry from innocence
There's more than meets the eye
'round here look to the waters of the deep
A City Of Evil.
There sat a 7 headed Beast, 10 horns raised from his head
Symbolic girl sits on his throne
But hatred strips her & leaves her naked
Beast & The Harlot.
She's a dwellin' place for demons
She's a cage for every unclean spirit, every filthy bird
And makes us drink the poisoned wine to fornicate it with our kings.
Fallen now is Babylon the Great.
The city dressed in jewels & gold, fine linen, Myrrh & pearls
Her plagues will come all at once as her mourners watch her burn
Destroyed in an hour.
Merchants & captains of the world, sailors navigators too
Will weep & mourn this loss with their sins piled to the sky
Beast & the Harlot.
She's a dwellin' place for demons
She's a cage for every unclean spirit, every filthy bird
And makes us drink the poisoned wine to fornicate it with our kings.
Fallen now is Babylon the Great.
The day has come for all us sinners
If your not a servant you'll be struck to the ground.
Flee the burning, greedy city
Lookin' back on her to see there's nothin' around.
I don't believe in fairytales & no one wants to go to hell
You've made the wrong decision & it's easy to see.
Now if you wanna serve above or be a king below with us
Your welcome to the city where your future is set forever.
She's a dwellin' place for demons
She's a cage for every unclean spirit, every filthy bird
And makes us drink the poisoned wine to fornicate it with our kings.
Fallen now is Babylon the Great.
She's a dwellin' place for demons
She's a cage for every unclean spirit, every filthy bird
And makes us drink the poisoned wine to fornicate it with our kings.
Fallen now is Babylon the Great.
