Babylon
Aphrodites Child Lyrics

Fallen fallen fallen
Babylon has fallen completely and irreversibly

is Babylon the great!
This represents the fall of a powerful and influential force

Space is getting bounded,
The world is becoming smaller and more limiting

time is getting late!
There is a sense of urgency to act before it's too late

Masters fall and wonder,
Even the highest authorities and rulers are falling and questioning their power

people rise and wait
The common people are rising up and waiting for change

You don't need a coin,
Money and material possessions aren't necessary

I don't have to shine
There's no need to be the center of attention or stand out

We don't know the reason
There's a lack of understanding for the current state of things

But I need you madly
The desire for love and connection is strong

and you need me too
The feeling is mutual

and we need each other...
There's a recognition of the importance of human connection

Fallen fallen fallen
Babylon is still irreversibly fallen

is Babylon the great!
The impact of this fall is still significant

Space is getting bounded,
The world is still becoming smaller and more limiting

time is getting late!
There's still a sense of urgency to act

Masters fall and wonder,
Those in power are still questioning their position

people rise and wait
People are still waiting for and working towards change

You don't need a coin,
The lack of need for material things is reiterated

I don't have to shine
The desire to stand out is still unnecessary

We don't know the reason
The lack of understanding is still present

But I need you madly
The need for love and connection is still strong

and you need me too
The importance of mutual connection is still recognized

and we need each other...
The importance of human connection is still emphasized
