Lyrics A Descent To Babylon (Babylon Asleep) - Celtic Frost

A Descent To Babylon (Babylon Asleep)

Babylon asleep, an everlasting foe
Striving to hurt, for flesh becomes dirt
Resting within, the sacred fire
I can’t withold, the lies untold
Dances and cries, a descent to babylon
Wine in my hand, a descent to babylon
All eyes must foul, in stench of fear
Killing to quench, Babylon’s tears
We are wisphering for holy wine
Innocence to reign, a world of shrines
This crazy dream, raging over ages
For only one belief.
Killing — Suffer for a thought
In human blood, stretched out
A descent to a 1000 deaths
As sweet as snow, as cold as dew
A descent to a 1000 deaths.
Babylon asleep
