The venom tears my spine
Came to me with a serpents kiss
The eyes of the Nile are opening, you'll see
Ablaze with hope and pain
Still the wind and rain
Bind all of us together
Our people drift and die
Will rock the boat you'll see
The light of the blind, you'll see
The light of the blind, you'll see
The walls of gold entomb us
For the one who will be king
The watcher in the ring
And the seed is sown in a holy place
The secret of the hanged man, the smile on his lips
Take away our pride
Walls are cold, souls cry out in pain
The eyes of the Nile are opening, you'll see
And I watched and I waited for the dawn, oh
Take not thy thunder from us
Our earthly rulers falter
No storm or heavy weather
The venom tears my spine
As the eye of the sun rose on her lips
No reason for a place like this
The swords of scorn divide
A clever path for the fools who know
An easy way for the blind to go
So we lay in a black embrace
It is you, oh
Just a babe in a black abyss
The time has come to close your eyes
Moonlight catches silver tears that I cry
