In the land of shifting sand in ancient days long gone The curse of the pyramid princess Was etched in a wall of stone A man who died, a man who tried to set her spirit free Has stepped into a nightmare for all eternity He’s running in slow motion caught up in a nightmare dream His tortured soul cries out but he screams a silent scream Unleash the power of the ancient Pharaoh’s tale Locked in chains forever to the very gates of hell Thunder, lightning, rolling on forever Still their spirits linger on and on You can hear the thunder, lightning, And for all eternity, They’ll walk the stone cold halls of that ancient rectory In the tomb of desperate souls hidden by the wind blown sand The legend lives on of the princess still cursed by the Pharaoh’s hand You can hear the eerie moans echo through the catacombs Lonely souls that walk the night, lost in time forever They’re running in slow motion caught up in a nightmare dream Their tortured souls cry out but they scream a silent scream Unleash the power of the ancient Pharaohs’s tale Locked in chains forever to the very gates of hell (chorus) He’s running in slow motion caught up in a nightmare dream His tortured soul cries out but he screams a silent scream Unleash the power of the ancient Pharaoh’s tale Locked in chains forever to the very gates of hell (chorus)
