Babylon
Lyrics Written By Catherine Lafuente
Vox by Catherine Lafuente
Music Composed by James Cathey

For J.M. Lafuente

sister
sleeps over israel, slumbers -
not nor sleeps; diminished.

he watching over jerusalem
has dreamt dutifully - with
lofty intentions; the
bloodshot eyes relapse.

our great white god has failed us -
the lamb is surprised, the -
fleece is gray and smouldering.

in the name of my father
and the sun
and the stock market.

dear great babylon - you've
slipped and lost your grip - rome -
it seems your sun has set, dear sodom -
one thousand cliches for
the city that want too far.
