CANTANTE: Babylon Whores

TITULO:Exit Eden

Apples and silver bear the trees of paradise / visions of heaven to unfold
before our eyes / where cherry orchards bloom eternal summer's night / upon
a sarcen stone we dreamed / our sweet old lies
And into the dreams bewitched / we'd hear the haunting song / that beckoned
us to taste / of the dark of unripe dawn
If pride doth go before the fall / the summer never was / promises gilded
and hollow / no longer do bind us / all knowing and all wise
We'll exit eden / by the sunrise
As pestilence falls down as rain upon our heads / still paved with gold
become the roads that we now tread / covered with sores and drunk with plain
mortality / we have no thing so dear we couldn't / part with and leave
And if plague and hail they say / may purge a righteous man / tears wept in
anger / shall be wiped away / by the devil's hand
If pride doth go before the fall / the summer never was / promises gilded
and hollow / no longer do bind us / all knowing and all wise
We'll exit eden / by the sunrise
(all sacred secrets and serpents / grow old and tangled in shadows coiled /
under bridges over alpheus stream / carrying their dust on to the sea)
