Mercyful Fate - Egypt Lyrics

[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
