Sphinx |
Eyes glow |
Vestal virgins laugh |
In the swirling smoke |
As the pyramid explodes |
I poke down the Nile |
I see the Sphinx smile |
She knows who I am |
As she grabs me by the hand |
Well I sat at my trial |
And the pharaoh smiled |
Said he knows what I am |
I’m the curse, I’m the birth |
I’m the reaper and the plague |
And I want you little man |
The Sphinx smiles and spreads her wings |
The pharaoh shouts his curse of kings |
Golden spheres evolve around him |
And I float away on a freezing wind |
I scream and shout |
Turn myself to run |
And the worlds disappear |
I’m in a maze that sways |
I’ve forgotten what the day is |
And my body shakes with fear |
I must try to escape |
Before the Minotaur awakes |
Now my body feels like lead |
I try to open doors |
But I’ve led me there before |
This for something that I said |
The Sphinx smiles and spreads her wings |
The pharaoh shouts his curse of kings |
Golden spheres evolve around him |
And I float away on a freezing wind |
Sphinx — ooh |
Sphinx — ooh |
The Sphinx smiles and spreads her wings |
The pharaoh shouts his curse of kings |
Golden spheres evolve around him |
And I float away on a freezing wind |
The Sphinx smiles and spreads her wings |
The pharaoh shouts his curse of kings |
Golden spheres evolve around him |
And I float away on a freezing wind… |
