Lyrics
I need to know how it feels
To see the light, in a world concealed
A burning bush, a fire bright
To flood the night
And open up my eyes
To rise above the din unscathed
All transgression washed away
And be released from the bondage of Babylon
I’ve got to find that narrow path
To avoid the vengeful wrath
Of the life I’ve led in Babylon
I need to know what it means
If life is more than suffering
I can forgive, but I won’t forget
For absolution
But I’m not worth the time
To rise above the din unscathed
Damnation washed away
And be released from the bondage of Babylon
I’ve got to find that narrow path
To avoid the vengeful wrath
Of the life I’ve led in Babylon
I’ve got a demon in my head
Pursued on every path I tread
And now I’m running out of rope
Please save me
My better nature called it quits
The scar is gleaming on my wrist
I haven’t given up on hope
Don’t forsake me
To rise above the din unscathed
All transgression washed away
And be released from the bondage of Babylon
I’ve got to find that narrow path
To avoid the vengeful wrath
Of the life I’ve led in Babylon
