You turn off the light

And you won't make no difference

You hear the echoes fade away

When the cries of despair

Turn to a sound in distance

The road ain't divine

Black are the wings that will carry me home



Tower in the night, up to the sky

Carry our remains angel of light

To the dark side of Paradise



On wings of fire to the back side of light

From Babylon to Paradise I crawl

On through shadows, i've seen iniquity galore

Been worth a detour and some more

The snake in the backyard of heaven



Venus guiding to the back door of love

From Babylon to Paradise I'm drawn

On through shadows, i've seen iniquity galore

Been worth a detour and some more

The snake in the backyard of heaven



I feel how I faint as I'm crossing the Acheron

Wash away my innocence

Was I losing my away

When the sky has been blackened

This short cut of evil

Where do they drive me, where will I go



Days gone by time after time

I'm going insane, losing my mind

To the dark side of Paradise



On wings of fire to the back side of light

From Babylon to Paradise I crawl

On through shadows, i've seen iniquity galore

Been worth a detour and some more

The snake in the backyard of heaven



Venus guiding to the back door of love

From Babylon to Paradise I'm drawn

On through shadows, i've seen iniquity galore

Been worth a detour and some more

The snake in the backyard of heaven

On wings of fire to the back side of light

From Babylon to Paradise I crawl

On through shadows, i've seen iniquity galore

Been worth a detour and some more

The snake in the backyard of heaven



Venus guiding to the back door of love

From Babylon to Paradise I'm drawn

On through shadows, i've seen iniquity galore

Been worth a detour and some more

The snake in the backyard of heaven
