Plagues Of Babylon Lyrics - Plagues Of Babylon - Iced Earth

We lie in wait 

Times is drawing near 

Earth crises all too clear 

The human virus starting to awake 

So we must manipulate 

We can't accept this human threat 

The power structure is intact 

As gods on earth we will forsake 

We must release the plague! 

So if you're asking yourself, why? 

Your eyes are blind to the raging storm 

Will they cleanse the earth of humanity? 

Unleash the plague of Babylon? 

Compliance 

Submission 

Cowards 

Led astray 

Traitors 

Liars 

Deceivers 

Have their way 

"And this shall be the plague with which 

The gods will strike all the people 

That wage war against them, 

Their flesh will rot while 

They are standing on their feet, 

Their eyes will rot in their sockets, 

And their tongues will rot in their mouths." 

There's no escape 

They feed from our hands 

Our minions plot 

As they make their stand 

As gods on earth 

We have foreseen 

We'll make the peasants bleed! 

So if you're asking yourself, why? 

Your eyes are blind to the raging storm 

Will they cleanse the earth of humanity? 

Unleash the plague of Babylon? 

So if you're asking yourself, why? 

Your eyes are blind to the raging storm 

Will they cleanse the earth of humanity? 

Unleash the plague of Babylon?
