Invisible Light
[Verse 1]
At the doors of Babylon
You are my Zion
Pacing tiger
The keeper's cage
Invisible light shoots from your eyes
A sign I can see from my high rise
Another castle crumbles, another monkey falls
Just open up your joy and let the sailors climb the walls
I thought I saw you laughing 10 feet in the air
It doesn't matter if they touch you
Where they cut you, can you give me?

[Chorus]
An invisible light
An invisible light, oh oh
An invisible light
An invisible light, I want
An invisible light
An invisible light, oh oh
An invisible light to keep me alive, oh-oh
Electric, all the tension
I can feel it with the fingers in my mind

[Verse 2]
Opiate Utopia gets hotter by the hour
I found you a flower in a field
My invention, among the tired, among the poor
Among the broken, the huddled masses
It's your time
Will you answer to a new name?
It changes all the time
I'll call you anything you want if I can say it's mine
This story's never-ending
Our footprint's been erased
Well here you are, I kiss a feeling
I see your mouth, though is it really?
[Chorus]
An invisible light
An invisible light, oh oh
An invisible light
An invisible light, I want
An invisible light
An invisible light, oh oh
An invisible light to keep me alive, oh-oh
Something really gets dimension
Can't you feel it bend your sense of time?

[Verse 3]
Babylon
Where bricks of mortared diamonds tower
Sailors lust and swagger, lazing in moon's beam
Whose laser gaze penetrates this sparkling theatre
Of excess and strobed lights
Painted whores
Sexual gladiators
Fiercely old party children
All wake from their slumber to debut the Bacchanal
Come to the light
Into the light
The invisible light

[Chorus]
An invisible light
An invisible light, oh oh
An invisible light
An invisible light, I want
An invisible light
An invisible light, oh oh
An invisible light to keep me alive, oh-oh
An invisible light
An invisible light, oh oh
An invisible light
An invisible light, I want
An invisible light
An invisible light, oh oh
An invisible light to keep me alive, oh-oh
