Lyrics:

VERSE 1
We wanted you close, thought we deserved to be near. We believed we had nothing to fear.
A tower went up, and You knocked us down for letting our heads get too far off the ground.
You broke our tongue, then we couldn’t relate, so we all went our separate ways.
Now we are spread all over the earth. The babble continues using different words.

CHANNEL Paradise lost, reality found. Arrogance tossed in a sea of sound.

VERSE 2
What will it take, when will it come, for us to all live together as one?
When will we learn the lessons you teach, that true understanding comes from more than speech
CHANNEL: 2X

CHORUS We all ba- - - - bble on, ba- - - - bble on :2X

BRIDGE

Babble continues to this very day, we’re still stuck down here under the weight.
The stones that we used to take us to You have tumbled, and crumbled, and left us confused.

 VERSE 3
We wanted you close, thought we deserved to be near. We believed we had nothing to fear.
A tower went up, and You knocked us down. For letting our heads get too far off the ground.
CHANNEL:2X

CHORUS: 2X
