Friday night, I'm going nowhere
I'm feeling unfulfilled and aimless on this Friday night.

All the lights are changing green to red
The world around me feels like it's constantly changing and is unpredictable.

Turning over TV stations
Trying to distract myself by flipping through channels on TV.

Situations running through my head
I can't stop thinking about different scenarios and possibilities in my mind.

Looking back through time
Reflecting on my past.

You know it's clear that I've been blind, I've been a fool
I'm recognizing that I made mistakes in my past that I wasn't aware of.

To open up my heart to all that jealousy
I allowed myself to become jealous of others and let that negative emotion influence my actions.

That bitterness, that ridicule
I also allowed bitterness and mocking behavior to affect me and my relationships with others.

Saturday, I'm running wild
On Saturday, I'm feeling free and uninhibited.

And all the lights are changing red to green
The world around me still seems unpredictable, but I'm approaching it with a different, more positive attitude.

Moving through the crowds I'm pushing
I'm feeling confident and assertive as I move through the people around me.

Chemicals are rushing in my bloodstream
I'm feeling a physical and emotional rush of adrenaline.

Only wish that you were here
I wish I had someone to share this feeling with.

You know I'm seeing it so clear
I'm experiencing a newfound clarity about my life and my feelings.

I've been afraid
I've been hesitant to express my true emotions.

To show you how I really feel
I haven't been honest with someone about how I feel about them or our relationship.

Admit to some of those bad mistakes I've made
I need to take ownership of the mistakes I've made in the past and apologize for them.

And if you want it
If you're interested in exploring things further.

Come and get it
Take the initiative to pursue a relationship with me.

Crying out loud
I need you to hear me and understand how I feel.

The love that I was
I was always in love with you.

Giving you was
My love for you was never in question, it was always there.

Never in doubt
I never questioned how I felt about you.

Let go of your heart
Stop guarding your heart and let down your walls.

Let go of your head
Stop overthinking everything and go with your heart.

And feel it now
Experience the emotions and feelings you've been holding back.

Sunday, all the lights of London shining
On Sunday, everything feels bright and beautiful in London.

Sky is fading red to blue
The day is transitioning from sunset to nightfall.

Kicking through the autumn leaves
Walking through leaves and feeling the change in seasons around me.

And wondering where it is you might be going to
Thinking about where someone I care about might be in life.

Turning back for home
Heading back to where I started.

You know I'm feeling so alone
Feeling lonely and longing for companionship.

I can't believe
I feel surprised and overwhelmed.

Climbing on the stair
Heading up the stairs.

I turn around to see you smiling there
I see someone I care about smiling at me.

In front of me
Right there in front of me is someone who makes me happy.

Babylon, Babylon, Babylon, Babylon, Babylon
The chorus repeats the word Babylon to remind us of the chaotic feeling of the world around us that we aim to overcome.
