As They Sleep - Bedlam Of The Nile lyrics

Deep into the Valley of the Kings On the west bank of the Nile Lies the secrets of the souls beneath A somber Egypt sky Thieves robbed all the graves And all that remains Is all that we know The struggle for power The darkest of hours A mummified pharaoh No one could anticipate the bedlam at the Nile Enter exile As famine swept the land The end of days Have lent a dying hand Unheard atrocities Feeding on the weak Why did you desecrate this sacred sanctity The towns were ravaged With swarms of scarabs And sounds of distant groans The blood of the Nile Their souls exiled Osiris save us all O god of the afterlife What do you seek Hast thou not paid the price The end of a dynasty So pure and true Whose secrets died in vein with the souls of the entombed Fight the reign These blows of fate Despair Collapse How long will this plague last Despair Collapse These secrets of the past An eclipse of royal power And poverty Surrounds these final hours An ancient kingdom lost A monarchy A conquered nation looks up to the new born king Engulfed in desert The sacred scarab A pharaoh's treasure Your curse awaits
