Beast and the Harlot - Avenged Sevenfold

This shining city built of gold, a far cry from innocence

There’s more than meets the eye round here

Look to the waters of the deep

A city of evil

There sat a seven-headed beast, ten horns raised from his head

A symbolic woman sits on his throne

But hatred strips her and leaves her naked

The Beast and the Harlot

She’s a dwelling place for demons

She’s a cage for every unclean spirit

Every filthy bird and makes us drink

The poisoned wine to fornicating with our kings

Fallen now is Babylon the Great

The city dressed in jewels and gold, fine linen, Myrrh and pearls

Her plagues will come all at once as mourners watch her burn

Destroyed in an hour

Merchants and captains of the world, sailors, navigators too

Will weep and mourn this loss with her sins piled to the sky

The Beast and the Harlot

She’s a dwelling place for demons

She’s a cage for every unclean spirit

every filthy bird and makes us drink

The poisoned wine to fornicating with our kings

Fallen now is Babylon the Great

The day has come for all us sinners

If your not a servant you’ll be struck to the ground

Flee the burning, greedy city

Looking back on her to see there’s nothing around

I don’t believe in fairytales and no one wants to go to Hell

You made the wrong decision and it’s easy to see

Now if you wanna serve above or be a king below with us Your welcome to the city where your future is set forever

She’s a dwelling place for demons

She’s a cage for every unclean spirit

Every filthy bird and makes us drink

The poisoned wine to fornicating with our kings

Fallen now is Babylon the Great

She’s a dwelling place for demons

She’s a cage for every unclean spirit

Every filthy bird and makes us drink

The poisoned wine to fornicating with our kings

Fallen now is Babylon the Great
