5 Seconds Of Summer – Babylon lyrics
[Verse 1: Calum]
I though we had a place, just our place, our home place, my headspace
Was you and I always, but that phase has been phased in our place
I see it on your face, a small trace, a place laid, we been erased
But if we're way too faded to drive, you can stay one more night

[Chorus: Calum/All]
We said we'd both love higher than we knew we could go
But still the hardest part is knowing when to let go
You wanted to go higher, higher, higher
Burn too bright, now the fire's gone, watch it all fall down, Babylon

[Post-Chorus: Calum]
Babylon
Burn too bright, now the fire's gone, watch it all fall down

[Verse 2: Calum]
We're tired of the view, it's your fuse, my half choose are not amused
I wish we had a clue to start new, a white moon, no residue
The color of our mood is so rude, a cold June, we're not immunine
But if we're way too faded to fight, you can stay one more night

[Chorus: Calum/All]
We said we'd both love higher than we knew we could go
But still the hardest part is knowing when to let go
You wanted to go higher, higher, higher
Burn too bright, now the fire's gone, watch it all fall down, Babylon

[Post-Chorus: Calum]
Babylon
Burn too bright, now the fire's gone, watch it all fall down

[Chorus: Calum & All]
We said we'd both love higher than we knew we could go
But still the hardest part is knowing when to let go
You wanted to go higher, higher, higher
Burn too bright, now the fire's gone, watch it all fall down
We said we'd both love higher than we knew we could go
But still the hardest part is knowing when to let go
You wanted to go higher, higher, higher
Burn too bright, now the fire's gone, watch it all fall down, Babylon

[Post-Chorus: Calum]
Babylon
Burn too bright, now the fire's gone, watch it all fall down

    I think the song speaks about alexander ( the hardest part it to know when to let go u want it to go higher higher higher) When alexander conquered many lands including Babylon he was full of greed still that he wanted an empire ruling entire Asia even tho it cost him most of his men, alexander rook Babylon as his home after his conquests, his men betrayed him and poisoned him, alexander died in Babylon and so (u burn too bright but the fires gone watch it all fall down, Babylon) Which kind of makes sense
