Saqqara Bird

from Ooparts by Hyde Abbey

/

lyrics

We take the last breath of this life,
At the gates of the world below

Slaved by the whip of my pharaoh
I burn my skin under a searing sun
Blood stains the sand, my hands are touching
The death of my belief is my encouragement

The skyline’s turning black
And moon, red as a bloodshed
The whole sky caves in
Exhuming thousands of mummies from their rest

At the red river in front of me
But before I’ll endure this slaughter

I am confined into Saqqara
Against my will
Where I only have this wooden bird of my sons
Just not to fade my memory

If these sacks of bones pull me under
At the gates of the underworld
I’ll raise from the arms of Anubis
Saqqara bird will be my light

“I shall lay my vengeance upon them”
People don’t forget, nothing gets forgiven
“I shall lay my vengeance upon you”

The skyline’s turning black
And moon’s red as a bloodshed
Saqqara Bird, Saqqara Bird
The whole sky caves in
Exhuming thousands of mummies

If these sacks of bones pull me under
At the gates of the underworld
I’ll raise from the arms of Anubis
Saqqara bird will be my light
Some trees flourish, others die

But my side wasn’t chosen, it was given
