Babylon Whores - Exit Eden lyrics

Apples and silver bear the trees of paradise / Visions of heaven to unfold before our eyes / Where cherry orchards bloom eternal summer's night / Upon a sarcen stone we dreamed / Our sweet old lies And into the dreams bewitched / We'd hear the haunting song / That beckoned us to taste / Of the dark of unripe dawn If pride doth go before the fall / The summer never was / Promises gilded and hollow / No longer do bind us / All knowing and all wise We'll exit Eden / By the sunrise As pestilence falls down as rain upon our heads / Still paved with gold become the roads that we now tread / Covered with sores and drunk with plain mortality / We have no thing so dear we couldn't / Part with and leave And if plague and hail they say / May purge a righteous man / Tears wept in anger / Shall be wiped away / By the Devil's hand If pride doth go before the fall / The summer never was / Promises gilded and hollow / No longer do bind us / All knowing and all wise We'll exit Eden / By the sunrise (All sacred secrets and serpents / Grow old and tangled in shadows coiled / Under bridges over Alpheus stream / Carrying their dust on to the sea)
