The Woman on the Scarlet Beast Lyrics

In the desert, where angels tread

The tale unfolds. A boy, enthroned on water

A story never told

In purple scarlet, A scarlet weave she rides

Seven heads, ten horns, Where blasphemy resides

Oh, Babylon, A great city, the night

A chalice of obscenities, A foreboding sight

Drunk on blood, A dance of wickedness

Judgment unfolds. In the desert they lust

A riddle on her forehead

Great Babylon proclaimed

Mother of all

Abominations in shadows named

Drunk of holy blood, Martyrs of Jesus' grace

Astonished eyes, Wonder etched on every face

Oh, Babylon, The riddle of the Lord

Oh, Babylon, The riddle unfolds its might

The beast with seven heads, A dance in the moonlight

One's voice is no longer, Ascends from the abyss

To heavy heads, A tale of turmoil and bliss

Don't love your God, Lose your head, The angel declares

Seven heads, seven hills, A cryptic affair

Kings of the past, The present and what's to be

The eighth and one of seven, Head for hell's decree

Ten horns, Kings in waiting, Not yet in power

With the scarlet fleece, Their transient hour

War against the Lamb, A futile quest

Defeated they stand, In the Lamb's comfort

Oh, Babylon, The waters tell your fate

People's nations' languages, A twist of hate

Turn on the whore, A violent sweep

A city tyrannous, Where kings bend the knee

Bullets trip down, Torn apart by teeth

Set to fire, A destiny believed

God's plan is unfolding, Words completed in strife

A city's reign crumbles, The Lamb's triumph over life
