Nightmare (Series)/Beast and the Harlot

Beast and the Harlot

This shining city built of gold, a far cry from innocence

There's more than meets the eye round here

Look to the waters of the deep

A city of evil

There sat a seven-headed beast, ten horns raised from his head

Symbolic woman sits on his thrown but hatred strips her

The beast and the harlot

She's a dwelling place for demons

She's a cage for every unclean spirit every filthy bird

And makes us drink the poisoned win to fornicate with our kings

This city dressed in jewels and gold, fine linen, myrrh and pearls

Her plagues will come all at once as her mourners watch her burn

Destroyed in an hour

Merchants and captains of the world, sailors, navigators too

Will weep and mourn this loss with her sins piled to the sky

The beast and the harlot

The day has come for all us sinners

If you're not a servant you'll be struck to the ground

Flee the burning, greedy city

Looking back on her to see there's nothing around

I don't believe in fairy tails

And no one wants to go to hell

But you made the wrong decision and it's easy to see

Now if you want to serve above be a king below with us

You're welcome to the city where you're future is set forever
