Lyrics
Walk the silent hours
Reflecting on quiet and contemplative moments.
Locked in fragile blues
Feeling emotionally vulnerable and delicate.
Close desperate eyes
Closing one's eyes in a state of desperation.
You're confused
Experiencing confusion.
Life is so way out of tune
Life feels disordered and dissonant.
Avalon there's no standing room
Avalon symbolizes a mythical place where there's no space.
What do we do?
Pleading for guidance or assistance.
Help us survive
Requesting help to survive.
How do we stay alive?
Questioning how to endure and continue living.
Thunder may roar
Acknowledging the potential for intense challenges (thunder).
Cities will fall
Anticipating the collapse of cities.
Shadows hide wall to wall
Darkness and secrecy cover everything.
All unspoken words
Unspoken thoughts and emotions remain unexpressed.
Leave the mindscape closed
The inner landscape is kept hidden.
You're lost in the night
Feeling adrift and disoriented during the night.
No one phoned
No communication or connection from others.
Babylon, four thousand years
Referencing the historical city Babylon and its long existence.
History, drowning in tears
History marked by sorrow and tears.
Count every human mistake
Reflecting on human errors and misjudgments.
Where children died on the street
Recalling tragedies where children lost their lives.
Daytime, nighttime, one desire
Desiring peace amidst the turmoil day and night.
From the tempest forever and ever retreat
Seeking refuge from a never-ending storm.
Don't close your eyes, it's always been there
Encouraging to face reality, whether pleasant or not.
The truth, the lies, the hours of despair
Recognizing the coexistence of truth, lies, and moments of despair.
There's no such thing
Rejecting the notion of "friendly fire" in conflicts.
As friendly fire
War-related concept emphasizing harm caused by allies.
Under their war-torn flags
Nations and their symbols affected by the ravages of war.
Poor men break down
Highlighting the impact of conflict on the less privileged.
Rich men conspire
Suggesting collaboration among the wealthy in plotting schemes.
Cold-blooded lies still brag
Emphasizing the persistence of deceitful narratives.
