Babylon Nights
IKE
We dressed like saints in a lover's cult,
Sequins sharp, sins on assault.
“Take the pill, you’ll feel just right”
So I swallowed rhythm and killed the night.
Eyes across like heat-seeking blame,
Lit the fuse, forgot your name.
Tonight, I’m not asking to be saved,
Punish me, I misbehaved.
Bodies colliding into bass,
Your “don’t” was lost in the yes on your face.
You pulled me close just to disappear,
I confessed what you didn’t wanna hear.
These Babylon nights,
Where freedom bites.
I said I love you, wrong place, wrong time.
You said I’m high,
“Not worth the climb.”
But I was falling, and you drew the line.
So I danced it down
With tears glamorized,
On these beautiful, burning
Babylon nights.
Smoke machines and pride on mute,
Your halo cracked under latex and boots.
You took the mic, I took the fall,
And the devil still answers when I call.
You stayed composed while I came undone,
Mascara sweat and a loaded gun.
You kissed me quiet, then backed away,
So I danced the ache until it frayed.
These Babylon nights,
Where freedom bites.
I said I love you, wrong place, wrong time.
You said I’m high,
It’s not the climb.
But I was falling, and you drew the line.
So I danced it down
With tears glamorized,
On these beautiful, burning
Babylon nights.
Spin me, break me, fake me clean,
Then vanish when the song turns mean.
I found truth in strobe and smoke,
But you bow to crowds, not hearts you broke.
These Babylon nights,
Where masks ignite.
We fake the peak while we lose the fight.
I said too much,
You bit your lip,
Love like this was built to slip.
So I danced alone
Under shattered lights,
On these beautiful, burning
Babylon nights.
These Babylon nights,
Where freedom bites.
I said I love you, wrong place, wrong time.
You said I’m high,
It’s not the climb.
But I was falling, and you drew the line.
So I danced it down
With tears glamorized,
On these beautiful, burning
Babylon nights.
