Angel of Babylon Lyrics


You turn off the light
And you won't make no difference
You hear the echoes fade away
When the cries of despair
Turn to a sound in distance
The road ain't divine
Black are the wings that will carry me homeTower in the night, up to the sky
Carry our remains angel of light
To the dark side of ParadiseOn wings of fire to the back side of light
From Babylon to Paradise I crawl
On through shadows, I've seen iniquity galore
Been worth a detour and some more
The snake in the backyard of heavenVenus guiding to the back door of love
From Babylon to Paradise I'm drawn
On through shadows, I've seen iniquity galore
Been worth a detour and some more
The snake in the backyard of heavenI feel how I faint as I'm crossing the Acheron
Wash away my innocence

Was I losing my away
When the sky has been blackened
This short cut of evil
Where do they drive me, where will I goDays gone by time after time
I'm going insane, losing my mind
To the dark side of ParadiseOn wings of fire to the back side of light
From Babylon to Paradise I crawl
On through shadows, I've seen iniquity galore
Been worth a detour and some more
The snake in the backyard of heavenVenus guiding to the back door of love
From Babylon to Paradise I'm drawn
On through shadows, I've seen iniquity galore
Been worth a detour and some more
The snake in the backyard of heavenOn wings of fire to the back side of light
From Babylon to Paradise I crawl
On through shadows, I've seen iniquity galore
Been worth a detour and some more
The snake in the backyard of heavenVenus guiding to the back door of love
From Babylon to Paradise I'm drawn
On through shadows, I've seen iniquity galore
Been worth a detour and some more
The snake in the backyard of heaven

Avantasia, from Germany, is the side-project of Edguy singer Tobias Sammet, founded in 1999. Two concept albums were released (The Metal Opera, The Metal Opera Pt. II), their structures similar to that of an opera. Both can be classified as power metal and/or symphonic metal. After the second album, Sammet announced that there would not be any more Avantasia albums. However, in January 2008 a third album was released, titled The Scarecrow. On November 16th 2007 two 6-track albums Lost in space Part 1 and Lost in space Part 2 were released. On April 2nd 2010 two new full-length albums were released, The Wicked Symphony and Angel Of Babylon, completing the Scarecrow Trilogy. In March 2011 the first Avantasia live CD and DVD called The Flying Opera were released. The contents were based on the footage taken during The Scarecrow tour in 2008, recorded on Wacken Open Air (Germany) and Masters of Rock (Vizovice, Czech Republic) music festivals.
