Gate of the Gods

The Chaldean king and a thousand lords in the desert night Quenching their thirst with cursed wine The sacred vessels have been defiled Now the writing's on the wall and the ending has begun And no one could forestall the fall of Babylon Can everybody see it? Can you read it on the wall? Is it real or just illusion? They sent for the wise man to decipher what it means A divine prosecution I won't believe what Daniel say I will defy the prophecy I will defeat my enemy They're on the march In the gate of the gods All the desecrators are paying the price Feel the wrath of the gods Retribution shine on the pagans inside Calling out for you Drain, dry the river Lead the way to ancient Babylon Ride across the desert plains Cyrus leads the armies on towards the walls All that remains, all that remains Inside that fading heart It was the pride (it was the pride) Before the fall (before the fall) Your kingdom in ruins lie, forever At the end of the attack All the colors fade to black The end of the line Now everyone can see it in the eyes of the defeated What you reap is what you sow Now they're tearing down the walls And the king has lost his crown And the writing was foretold The fall of Babylon In the gate of the gods All the desecrators are paying the price Feel the wrath of the gods Retribution shine on the pagans inside In the gate of the gods All the desecrators are paying the price Feel the wrath of the gods Retribution shine on the pagans inside Calling out for you Out for you Out for you!
