[Verse 1]
Babylon
It's for you I sing
Babylon
In a sea of other things
This song
Burning the offering
[Verse 2: Oneohtrix Point Never & Prurient]
Liquid shaky ground
That the soil cannot reach (Cannot reach)
And the tower casts a shadow
Virus when you speak
[Verse 3]
And I love it when I see you
In a state of disbelief
Even if I'm wrong
You're not that Babylon
[Verse 4: Oneohtrix Point Never & Prurient]
Run along (Run along)
Even though you don't believe
Just go on
It's easy to be deceived
Right or wrong
So difficult to leave
[Interlude]
It's not that I don't get it
I really think I do
We wanted it to be different
But that ain't happening any time soon
Mood spelled backwards
Says "doom"
(Help me)
[Chorus]
Now I know why
You think we're in Babylon
(Help me)
Now I know why
You think we're in Babylon
(Help me)
Now I know why
You can't leave this Babylon
