Ramesses Lyrics


I stand before a sea of sand

A hot wind blows across these lands

The sun bleaches the bones, of those who build my legacy

I am king, I am your god, I cannot die

On holy ground, blood squeezed from the stone

Listen my story it lives on and on and on

A dying sun, the sands of time, a dreams slip away

Corrupted by the passing of the years

Like fuel to the fire it feeds my desire

I bathe in the power and I will rise again

The flesh and the bones, in statues of stone

You will remember me

Through death decay and the tears

And I will live a thousand years

The sand whispers my name

Broke are the chains, left by the kings of old

I am God, I am your light, I'll shine for ever

On holy ground; blood squeezed from the stone

Listen to my story it lives on and on and on

A journey written in the stars, but dreams slip away

Corrupted by the passing of the years

Like fuel to the fire it feeds my desire

I bathe in the power and I will rise again

The flesh and the bones, in statues of stone

You will remember me

I am Ramesses, I am King, I am a living God

Like fuel to the fire, in statues of stone

You will remember me,

I am the light, I am the life, I am the light in the dark

Like a phoenix rising, rising from the flames

I feed from the fire, life's purifier

Time keeps turning, turning like a wheel

My face and glory, carved into the stone

And when I fall I will lie in the Valley of the Kings

Like fuel to the fire, it feeds my desire
