What have you done my wife?

I'll beat you to an inch of your life

I'll try to explain if you kindly refrain

Then I sliced with the blade of my knife

Allistar I beat him bloody battered to the bone

My eyes were glazed with craziness

I lost all control

I drew my sword and pressed it squarely straight into his chest

I said tell me what have you done or I'll lay you to rest

A mystical place seen by no one

So we set off on the expedition

No turning back, nowhere to run

I now know my journey to hell had begun

Come with me come with me, on the expedition

Such secrets you will see, on the expedition

Let me take you back, not but ten years ago

A village in Egypt that I called my home

My father, a doctor well known

His dreams, he would share them alone

I learned his ways I could amaze the people with my healing

My destiny was not to be what Daddy did desire

I yearned to find the secrets that the desert was concealing

A longing for adventure in me burning like a fire

The tomb of Osiris buried under centuries of sand

I knew, I knew I had to find it

Something beckoned me and forced my hand

With my father's funding I assembled all the best

One hundred men, supplies and archaeologists

We set out in the sands and followed faded clues

Something strangely guided me

It somehow ted me to the tomb of Osiris

After forty days and night we finally came to the site

Gazing at the ruins by moonlight

We set up our camp and began to explore

Amazing the massive size of that door

Digging scraping excavating ruins in the dust

The writings on that giant door were warnings we should trust

They spoke about an ancient race, the old ones from the stars

My scientist's translations told of creatures quite bizarre

For twenty days and nights we worked at the site

Nothing we did would go right, trying to open that door

My men had not seen nothing like this before
