Ask yourself was it you who let me down? I'll tell you how you flew too near to the sun Then it scorched you down to the ground Was it so radiant as the illusion Which promised you all of your dreams? Fed up by London, the whole of the world And the purposelessness of it all Weather the storm of a change These are our Babylon days We saw ourselves as we see ourselves Statues can't speak for themselves And these are our Babylon days Brеak in the rain What does it matter what I was likе then or now? I'll shoot you down, hold your spirit like a gun Words are bullets for the young Take a knee before you leave And Mother Mary, answer me Cross my heart and count to three What in life's right and what's wrong? We might've tried, we might've run We brought the curses down upon ourselves Through our hatred and fear The eagles and ravens Heroes and cravens And these are our Babylon days These examples we emulate The virgin girl with a shining face And these are our Babylon days We saw ourselves as we see ourselves These streets will speak for themselves And these are our Babylon days Sign yourself a million words To say the things your heart will serve And these are our Babylon days (Break in the rain) (Break in the rain) We saw ourselves as we see ourselves These streets will speak for themselves These are our Babylon days
