Lyrics
Sacked in a discourteous way
Singing a bitter dissent
Deriding the defeated rival
A Babylonian lament
Fleeing the unprecedented doom
Distancing the scorning
Heeding the cautionary tale
A Babylonian warning
Mourning over broken alliances
Observing a norm that’s strange
Grieving a method undoin
A Babylonian change
Languishing over the wreckage
Witnessing a prophetic (fore)telling
A Systematic ruination
A Babylonian quelling
Wailing over deafening quiet
A hush befalling no violence
Voiceless tidings unanswered
A Babylonian silence
Rejoice! O heaven rejoice!
Rejoice over her fate!
