10. New Babylon (4:19)
Beware the dynasty
Spreading conformity
The secret ministry
New Babylon
We are born, we are sold, we're deprived
Of the chance for the truth, of our rights
We are hiding from the light
New Pariah
Beware the dynasty
Spreading conformity
The secret ministry
New Babylon
We are born, we are sold, we're deprived
Of the chance for the truth, of our rights
We are hiding from the light
New Pariah
How could I forgive myself
If I was to let go
And how could I reclaim
My own asylum
If my defenses would fall
For I have always had these wounds
I've faced the world alone
Yet never will I sway
Never back away
From the edge of the light
Welcome home to a place
Where the Titans rule
Take me home
To drown in an ocean of lies
Now swear in conformity
New Babylon
The face of conspiracy
New Pariah
Arrival of a new born child
A miracle of life
The freedom of a choice
An undistorted voice
From the edge of the light
Welcome home to a place
Where the Titans rule
Take me home
I'm parting the ocean of lies
Now swear in conformity
New Babylon
The face of conspiracy
New Pariah
Another tyrant lays to die
Under the black Babylonian sky
And the crowd goes wild
As they silence the sound of the drum
That led them astray
All is burning
Deep is the abyss
A storm is coming
Feel the serpents kiss
Brace for impact
Shields to form a wall
By the hands of the small
Every giant must fall
(Beware the dynasty
Spreading conformity
The secret ministry
New Babylon
We are born, we are sold, we're deprived
Of the chance for the truth, of our rights
We are hiding from the light
New Pariah)
Now swear in conformity
New Babylon
The face of conspiracy
New Pariah
Now swear in conformity
New Babylon conspiracy
New Pariah
Spreading conformity
The secret ministry
New Babylon
We are born, we are sold, we're deprived
Of the chance for the truth, of our rights
We are hiding from the light
New Pariah
Beware the dynasty
Spreading conformity
The secret ministry
New Babylon
We are born, we are sold, we're deprived
Of the chance for the truth, of our rights
We are hiding from the light
New Pariah
How could I forgive myself
If I was to let go
And how could I reclaim
My own asylum
If my defenses would fall
For I have always had these wounds
I've faced the world alone
Yet never will I sway
Never back away
From the edge of the light
Welcome home to a place
Where the Titans rule
Take me home
To drown in an ocean of lies

Now swear in conformity
New Babylon conspiracy
