Mercyful Fate - Egypt lyrics

rate me

(Music & lyrics by King Diamond)

Ahh...Egypt...Ahh

Solo: Shermann

O Thou of countless names

Who are one and all things

O Thou of countless names

Without beginning, without end

Ahh...Egypt...Ahh

Osiris...Anubis...The underworld

is yours

Osiris...Anubis...I put my soul

in your hands

O Thou, God of the Dead

Lead my soul to the judgement hall

O Thou, Jackal Head

Weigh my soul, I await your call

Ahh...Egypt...Ahh

Ammit, Eater of the Dead

Is devouring my heart

Will I pass on to Aaru

Or will I be condemned?

Solo: Denner

I'm burning inside to know

I'm burning inside to know

I'm burning inside to know

I must be back on time

But still I want to know

I hope they let me go

I'm from another time

And I must reunite

My body and my soul

I'm burning inside to know

I'm burning inside to know

I'm burning inside to know

Osiris...Anubis...The underworld

is yours

Osiris...Anubis...I put my soul

in your hands

O Thou of countless names

Who are one and all things

O Thou of countless names

Without beginning, without end

Ahh...Egypt...Ahh

Egypt come back to me

Egypt come back to me

Egypt, without beginning or end
