Queen of the Nile

At the heart of the desert Sunset's in your mind The sandstorms are burning your eyes You once ruled the rich fields The land of milk and honey Now poverty's the only thing you've got You locked your heart into a chest of ice And sold your soul just for desire You killed your unborn son And threw him into the hellfire Queen of the Nile, once the star of the masquerade Queen of the Nile, casting shadows on brighter days You're rotten to the core, see your life burning away Alone in the temple Longing for salvation But no one will answer your prayers Behind the darkest curtains Lost in strange illusions You're drowning in the sea of lies Vainglory takes over your soul And the pharaoh will come after you You fell from grace and You'll fall from your tower so soon Queen of the Nile, once the star of the masquerade Queen of the Nile, casting shadows on brighter days You're rotten to the core, see your life burning away Stand up and look into my eyes Your time has come to pay the price Drink from the grail And hold my hand You turned your back to paradise Behind the mountains I will rise Welcome to your Judgment Day Queen of the Nile, once the star of the masquerade Queen of the Nile, casting shadows on brighter days You're rotten to the core, see your life burning away Queen of the Nile, once the star of the masquerade Queen of the Nile, casting shadows on brighter days You're rotten to the core, see your life burning away Queen of the night yea ooh ooh Queen of the night yea ooh ooh Ooh ooh ooh Queen of the night yea ooh ooh Queen of the night yea ooh ooh Ooh ooh ooh
