Take this oath from the depth of my heart And you will never fall like empires and burned out stars Abandon all your trust to roam free in life Before your world is buried in a darkened shrine I revel in sin, I dance with the dead In my dreams I see nothing but red Desire and fire, now Babylon likes ahead I revel in her pleasures bound for me to take Her interior are poison but beyond anything else I have nothing left for them to breach I have become a fortress, imperial not godless The world is at my feet Monolithic are my tyranny In the absence of my saviour In failure they cannot see Sanctity of allegiance in me In the absence of my saviour They revel in their own failure O how they fail to see Sanctity of allegiance in me I have nothing left for them to breach I have become a fortress, imperial not godless I revel in sin, I dance with the dead In my dreams I see nothing but red Desire and fire, now Babylon lies ahead I have nothing left for them to breach I have become a fortress, imperial not godless In the absence of my saviour In failure they cannot see Sanctity of allegiance in me In the absence of a saviour They revel in their own failure O how they fail to see Sanctity of allegiance in me
