5 Seconds of Summer
Babylon (Live)
[Verse 1: Calum]
I thought we had a place
Just our place, our home base, my headspace
Was you and I always
But that phase has been phased in our place
I see it on your face, a small trace
A blank slate, we've been erased

[Pre-Chorus: Calum]
But if we're way too faded to drive
You can stay one more night
Sing!

[Chorus: All, Luke]
We said we'd both love harder than we knew we could go
But still the hardest part is knowing when to let go
You wanted to go higher, higher, higher
Burn too bright, now the fire's gone
Watch it all fall down: Babylon
Go!

[Post-Chorus: All]
Babylon
Burnt too bright, now the fire's gone
Watch it all fall down
[Verse 2: Calum]
I'm tired of the feud, my short fuse
My half-truths are not amused
I wish we had a clue to start new
A white moon, no residue
The color of our mood is all rude
A cold June, we're not immune

[Pre-Chorus: Calum, Calum & Luke]
But if we're way too faded to fight
You can stay one more night
Sing!

[Chorus: All, Luke]
We said we'd both love harder than we knew we could go
But still the hardest part is knowing when to let go
You wanted to go higher, higher, higher
Burn too bright, now the fire's gone
Watch it all fall down: Babylon
(Go!)

[Post-Chorus: Luke]
Babylon
Burnt too bright, now the fire's gone
Watch it all fall down
[Breakdown: Calum, All, Luke]
We said we both loved harder than we knew we could go
But still the hardest part is knowing when to let go
You wanted to go higher, higher, higher
Burnt too bright, now the fire's gone
Watch it all fall down (Get those hands up!)

[Chorus: All, Luke, Calum]
We said we'd both love harder than we knew we could go
But still the hardest part is knowing when to let go
You wanted to go higher, higher, higher
Burn too bright, now the fire's gone (Get those hands up, hands up)
Watch it all fall down: Babylon, yeah

[Post-Chorus: All]
Babylon
Burnt too bright, now the fire's gone
Watch it all fall down
