Republic Records - The Gates of Babylon lyrics

[Verse 1] Awakening a goddess in the dark On a stake she's been hanging like a doll Tried to reach for the underworld Had to pa** through the seven gates of hell [Refrain] Naked, lost, and deprived of all All the power that she had lost [Chorus] Dear ancient god, reveal your home At the gates of Babylon Dear ancient one, I see your home At the gates of Babylon [Verse 2] Sent by Lord Enki to find, the goddess Ishtar And bring her back to life The tale of d**h and rebirth will become The walls of kings and the goddess that she was [Refrain] Naked, lost, and deprived of all All the power that she had lost [Chorus] Dear ancient god, reveal your home At the gates of Babylon Dear ancient one, I see your home At the gates of Babylon [Bridge] Dear sister what have I done to deserve thy anger? I pa**ed through the seven gates, now all I had is yours The underworld that you rule, I became a victim of The messenger from another time has brought me home [Chorus] Dear ancient god, reveal your home At the gates of Babylon Dear ancient one, I see your home At the gates of Babylon [Chorus] Dear ancient God, release your soul At the gates of Babylon Dear ancient one, I see your home At the gates of Babylon
