The Black Pyramid Lyrics

Where the river and the sand
Come together by the hand
Of the keeper of the Temple of the Sun

There's a mountain made of stone
Ever standing on its own
Waiting silently for Anubis to come

Hateful is my name
All my brothers turn away
From the smell of Ravens dying in the heat

Accursed is the flesh
Of the ones awaiting death
Who wade from stinking marches with their meat

Who can I speak to now in the dark?
There are no faithful left among you

It's in my blood
The sands of time run through my viens
And into your eyes

Cado, Diabolus
Ubi inquit excessium
Voluntus qui inquit
Eximo, vel inquit capio
Inferno

Breathing in the air
Of a thousand year old lair
As I plunder all the temples of the king

On the walls I read, enchanted
From the book of the dead
From the underworlds I hear the Demons sing

Yet the air is foul
As I come unto you now
Let me whet the fire of your thirst

Naked you will lay
On the alter as I pray
Draining you with dagger and a curse

Will you not listen now in the dark?
There is a shadow stood behind you

It's in my blood
The sands of time run through my viens
And into your eyes

Cado, Diabolus
Ubi inquit excessium
Voluntus qui inquit
Eximo, vel inquit capio
Inferno

Laying buried in the sand
Is it hard to understand
That you cannot fight the power in the dust

Exposing at the core
That the blackened heart is pure
The only true emotion is your lust

She who travels yonder
On the river is a god
Destroying every temple in her wake

Screaming as she came
Calling out her name
Embracing as the Earth begins to shake

Who will you prey to now in the Dark?
I am the statue stood before you

It's in my blood
The sands of time run through my viens
And into your eyes

Cado, Diabolus
Ubi inquit excessium
Voluntus qui inquit
Eximo, vel inquit capio
Inferno

It's in my blood
The sands of time run through my viens
And into your eyes
And into your eyes....
