You could have saved me, if only you cared
You could have cut through this grief
If you had once but shared
But you’d rather I suffer
In this Babylon pain
And you would I rather
Suffer this shame
I’ll ride on this river of Babylon shame
I’ll ride in the street of this Babylon blame
I’ll ride on the ridges of Babylon high
I’ll fall in the depths as Babylon dies
You could have come while I was lost in this fall
You could have come, mitigated it all
You could have come made it all alright
You could have come, put sun in the light
I’ll ride on this river of Babylon shame
I’ll ride in the street of this Babylon blame
I’ll ride on the ridges of Babylon high
I’ll fall in the depths as Babylon dies
No one ever answers the phone for me
No one ever answers the call from me
No one ever whispers the words I need to hear
Nobody calms this cold dead fear
I’ll ride on this river of Babylon shame
I’ll ride in the street of this Babylon blame
I’ll ride on the ridges of Babylon high
I’ll fall in the depths as Babylon dies
Someday play the song and upload it with music too here! 🥰

I’ve rethought it as a ska/punk song
