A Hope For Home - Babylon: The Insatiable Thirst

Текст песни

Hollow
To be without the One that brought us here
Meaningless
Rip the roots from the ground to lay down foundations bound to crumble
Generations will come and go but the earth will remain
Swallow lies as you construct compensations for truth
Trading in our souls for white washed figures and towering symbols of our
progress. We’re all chasing the wind
But it’s all in vain. The same fate will overtake us all in the end
The workforce marching, hearts heavy as stone
For the same fate overtakes us all
And I have walked every mile, and upturned every stone. I’ve indulged every
urge And bowed at the altar of greed
Just to find that all of this is meaningless
What is there left for men to do with the little time we have?
Denying ourselves nothing we desire. We are counting down the days until we’ve
reached our final hour. Nothing will be gained under the sun
I have seen, all things forged must come undone
I have surveyed all my hands have done
And when we pass we leave everything behind
I have walked every mile, and upturned every stone. I’ve indulged every urge
and bowed at the altar of greed
Just to find that all of this is meaningless
And as we stand at the edge of time, we will look back and we will see
That our gods all will fade to dust if they are built from mortar and machines
Hollow
Meaningless
