Screamer - Towers of Babylon Lyrics

A world of destruction is all that we see
But can it be turned into green
When hatred surrounds us in powerful ways
Do we have the power to be

The change that is needed
When power's depleted
Can we change and turn it around

To put out the fires
Remove all the liars
A better world can be found

So we reach for the light
Tear down the towers of Babylon
Then we fall to the ground
Tear down the towers

Now time is a factor and lives are at stake
I know you are tempted to run
But we can't keep hiding from this anymore
Cause we are all under the gun

A world that is ending
And powers ascending
Rejecting what we've once been told

To reach any higher
We must build this pyre
And burn down those structures of old

So we reach for the light
Tear down the towers of Babylon
Then we fall to the ground
Tear down the towers

The power to wreck and the power to build
When there's a way, there must be a will

So we reach for the light
Tear down the towers of Babylon
Then we fall to the ground
Tear down the towers

No more bowing to power
Tear down the towers of Babylon
The doomsday clock strikes the hour
Tear down the towers
