Babel's Tower

In terrible silence you stood

at the world's end

And you crawled into the sun

Blinded by the fires

That seared your heart

And the seething tongues

of the lies we becameAnd I sat in Babel's tower

And I judged the world

Not that I Said I spoke the language

Of saints and sinners

But I preached the world was flat

And slipped beneath the cracksIn horror I strode

to the world's end

Saw some torn by hunger

Others by steel

But by the bitter fortune

We Cursed the heathen men

and the holy yet found no reliefAnd we sat in Babel's tower

And we fought all the world

and I never spoke the language

Of your saints and my sinners

Of men nor beast

Who roamed this flat earth
