Lyrics
Valley Of The Kings
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
In a distant place in time a pharaoh wandered
In his mind he could see a kingdom
With this king they could not reason
Enslaved in the wish and the dream of a man who's planned their destiny
There is no way out, there can be no doubt
The blood will flow
A thousand souls plead for mercy
A thousand times over
You'll hear it on the wind
These sinners never sinned
Stone on stone they built `til the day their life is over
They control with the whips and chains
They bequeath us with a life of pain
No way out of this place you gotta work until it's over
See the fire in the sky, in glory die
Cry if you must but die you will
The valley of the kings will still be built
See the fire in the sky, in glory die
The blood will flow
A thousand souls plead for mercy
A thousand times over
You'll hear it on the wind
These sinners never sinned
The king looks on and sees his dream arising
One grave will found in the end, his spirit's lost
But one will be saved
And with him he will take it all
Jewels and gold will guard his soul
Feel the kiss on the wind
And the blood in the sand
It was built with flesh and blood
It wasn't built by any god
Feel the kiss on the wind
And the blood on the sand
The blood will flow
A thousand souls plead for mercy
A thousand times over
You'll hear it on the wind
These sinners never sinned
Na, na, na
Na, na, na
In the valley of the kings
Na, na, na
Na, na, na
You're workin', slavin
Into death every day
Set us free
Na, na, na
Na, na, na
In the valley of the kings
You're in the valley of the kings
Na, na, na
Na, na, na
You're workin', slavin'
Into death every day
