You stay secure in time honored traditions made
And never wonder where or when the signal may come
If we don't seek out knowledge to be greater men
When the rain starts falling gonna drown before we get our feet wet

We build our ivory towers to protect us from the flood
A fleet of vessels made of wood so they won't rust
But can't we see the bottom of the bottle when we start to drink
There's fire on the mountain
Fire and it's coming our way

Can we pick the pieces up
We're mending Babylon
Try to right the wrong
Can we pick the pieces up
Live
Learn
Life
Love
Die
Dust
Gone

There's fire on the mountain

Can we pick the pieces up
We're mending Babylon
Try to write the wrong
Can we pick the pieces up
Live
Learn
Life
Love
Die
Dust
Gone
