Lefay Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Two sacred thoughts she holds
The chalice with every man's sin
Her alabaster skin is covered
With purple and gold
There she rides on a desolate soul
Her nefarious actions and
By this world and the kings
Who shall come
Her influence will grow
As she sows the seeds of sin
There she is
The whore of babylon
Riding with the devil
She will live forever
Hail the whore
The whore of babylon
Spreading sins and shame
Forever more
The whore of babylon
Man built their empires
All over the world, the whore
Built them to crumble and fall
Her legacy follows
The new generation to come
There she is
The whore of babylon
Riding with the devil
She will live forever
Hail the whore
The whore of babylon
Spreading sin and shame
Forever more
The whore of babylon
As the sun commands the shadow
To darken the world she forces
Our cities to fall to decay
And without knowing
You hold the amber of sin
There she is
The whore of babylon
Riding with the devil
She will live forever
Hail the whore
The whore of babylon
Riding with the devil
She will live forever
The whore of babylon

Her influence will grow as she sows the seeds of sin.

The Whore of Babylon is known for spreading sins and shame forevermore, and she will live forever, riding with the devil.
