Prayers Upon Deaf Ears by Arkangel

Within the Walls of Babylon

by Arkangel· from Prayers Upon Deaf Ears

Immersed in a sea of pain Chained to a lifetime agony Existence becomes a thorn stuck in the side of the innocents Born different, destined to suffer A throne usurped by man for a Kingdom plagued with tyranny Malicious, vile, merciless Modernity devours the children of earth disgraced Before humanity's demented eyes Driven by sickness civilization indulges in suicidal madness Within the walls of Babylon, wickedness is rampant And snakes crawl under virgin skin I seek a moral elevation To salvage hopes of paradise No more cupidity but altruism to restore harmony Under a red sky of dying nature Laments of the dead praise revolution Tears of the victimized Flow into a sea of despair
