"Babylon" lyrics

(Te he amado como Dios amó su hijo)

I thought it was fruit on the tree hanging in Eden
God's given gift
I wanna meet him

Guilt of the lamb
Dying of thirst, waist deep in the Jordan
I look at you, and wish my love had not been a burden
Baptize me
Define me
My souls' delivered

I hope I'm yours
From Bethlehem to Babylon
When the flood comes, bury me in your arms
I want my love to burn in your lungs
The same love that tortures my tongue
And how can it be the same?
You've taken everything from me but my name
And I should share the blame
I think you love me, but your love is too late

I look at the cross
Don't we all want something from nothing?
Is it not enough? (Dying for everything)

Killing a dream
Holding it close while it bleeds
Sundered by death, I love the way that it hurts me
Baptize me
Terrorize me
My sins forgiven

I hope I'm yours
From Bethlehem to Babylon
When the flood comes, bury me in your arms
I want my love to burn in your lungs
The same love that tortures my tongue
And how can it be the same?
You've taken everything from me but my name
And I should share the blame
I think you love me, but your love is too late

Dear God kill me
And when the hole in the heart of you swallows me
At least I can rest in the bones of your love for me

I hope I'm yours
From Bethlehem to Babylon
When the flood comes, bury me in your arms
I want my love to burn in your lungs
The same love that tortures my tongue
And how can it be the same?
You've taken everything from me but my name
And I should share the blame
I think you love me, but your love is too late
