[Verse 1: Garrison Lee]
Children of Anu
A son born of Tiamat and Abzu
His mother's dissected corpse
Carefully arranged to create the universe
Marduk, patron god of Babylon
Marduk is aging, a city in decline
Anu impregnates the earth
Birth seven gods
Decree their destinies
To serve as the weapons of Erra
The ruins of a city
The vicious Sebitti
Fear
[Verse 2: Garrison Lee]
Children of Anu
Lay low, living things
Fill their hearts with dragon's venom
Devastation to, to Marduk and Babylon
[Chorus: Garrison Lee &
Alan Rigdon
]
(Ishum lights the way)
Through the darkened city streets
His body illuminates
(Ignite like)
Ignite like Gerra
In the wake of Erra, they decimate
[Post-Chorus 1: Garrison Lee]
Devastate a city in decline
May they lay low living things
The Igigi will glorify your name
[Bridge: Garrison Lee]
Mountain peaks bow their heads in terror
The gods, your fathers, praise your valor
Kings kneel beneath your feet
Countries bring you their tribute
Demons flee
Rolling seas
Hear and stir up
People are frightened into controlling the noise
[Chorus: Garrison Lee &
Alan Rigdon
]
(Ishum lights the way)
Through the darkened city streets
His body illuminates
(Ignite like)
Ignite like Gerra
In the wake of Erra, they decimate
[Post-Chorus 2: Garrison Lee]
Devastate a city in decline
Devastate the city of the gods
Children of Anu
Lay low, living things
The Igigi will glorify your name
The gods, your fathers, will praise your valor, oh
