Babylon Mystery Orchestra - Semjaza's Song lyrics

This is how it happened, in a place you'll never know. When a tempting flesh set angels hearts aglow. The angels came to me, they possessed a wicked plan. But they need me to make their stand. "We can bring the heavens to the world that lies below. But trust you....I don't." To pusue this crime to which we are disposed, I demand your oath....now make it so." Swear to me! This curse is agreed. Swear to me! And we will proceed. Swear to me! This is how it will be. Swear to me! And you're bound to this deed. So we took this world from the helpless hands of man. And we filled their thoughts with contraband. We will right the earth, from the error of heavens throne! And take it's beauty for our own. The brides of heaven will breed a new race. For mankind....replace. They will follow, with love at first glance. Just give them music, and watchem' dance. Swear to me! This curse is agreed. Swear to me! And we will proceed. Swear to me! This is how it will be. Swear to me! And you're bound to this deed. Now the earth is ripe, as it was so long ago, For the sons of God to strike a final blow. Times may change, but man is now as then. Just look, they've fallen for it again. "We will bring the heavens to the world that lies below. But trust you.....I don't. To pursue this crime to which we are disposed, I demand your oath....now make it so. Swear to me! This curse is agreed. Swear to me! And we will proceed. Swear to me! This is how it will be. Swear to me! And you're bound to this deed. Azazel taught men to make shields, swords and breastplates for war. He taught them to construct mirrors, and the craftmanship of bracelets and ornaments for their bodies. He introduced the beautifying of the face with paint and dyes. Armers taught the solution of sorcery. Tamiel taught astronomy. Amazarak taught all the sorcerers and dividers of roots. All the angels did reveal secrets reserved for the heavens. A knowledge that was not meant for mankind. Every manner of wickedness increased. Fornication and perversion multiplied and all the ways of men were polluted. The world was irreversibly corrupted.
