Lyrics The Demented Scholar of Abatos - Denominate

The Demented Scholar of Abatos

A servant of the usher of souls
Ferryman of the river Nile
Bringing forth the dead to rest
Unto the stones of the inaccessible isle
The place to which life is forfeit
Past the heavenly gates
The fortress of divine fire
The hidden flames of Thoth
A scholar of paranoid ways
Obsessed to protect the sacred isle
He would greet the souls that entered
With questions known only by the gods
And by the dead
Yet this priest, sworn to protect
This power born of Ra
In his error gave crossing
To souls, not on their way to Duat
Mistaking the dead for those alive
He broke the vows to which he was bound
The thief stole the divine fire
And fled back across the waters
A place to which life is forfeit
Abatos
On the eve of theft
Begins our revolution
From the isle of death
Bring forth revelation
Revolution
Revelation
