lyrics

Into the city they gather
Men of the earth now unite
Nomads who once were all scattered
Desire to show off their might
Speaking with only one tongue
Building their own paradise
But daring to climb the rungs
Would lead to the greatest price

With mortal eyes open wide
Their tower would soon reach the sun
To punish them for their pride
The Lord knew what had to be done
The twisting of tongues was born
So no one could understand
And with society torn
Paradise was out of their hands

Chorus:
Building a tower
Made of their mortal stone
Showing their power
And challenging the throne
Having lost the odds
Their languages blurred
The Voice of God
Will never be heard

Do you see a contradiction
Just what is the divine aim
Humanity kept in constriction
Told to be good in their shame
Your towers will always crumble
Your tongues will always be split
Unless you are always humble
A lap dog for this hypocrite

Chorus
