Nightwish - The Pharaoh Sails to OrionLyrics

"Get away from me Take heed to thyself and see my face no more For in the day Thou see my face Thou shalt die" - Exodus 10:28 A constellation of divine architecture built on Earth A holy harbour, Orion Nautical ascension to the firmament Ship-shaped barrows Open my heart to the wisdom of this land Sailing with the Serpent Chimera Of a fiendish sandman The Unicorn arrives with the westwind To dream His funeral "Thou art born for Horus dwells in Thee" Slumbering with the ebb and the flow Of this foaming tomb "Thou art born for Seteh dwells in Thee" Reveal your face to me and guide me Through the Stygian fields Enthral my soul to Sepedet's beams To serve Your will Sailing on the distant seas from darkness to deliverance Tales like the ocean written to the Draco's glance Ruling with the scythe of death you tear our philosophies apart An ancient starwalk to merge into the stars "Open thy veins for my venom Kiss the cobras with thy twisted tongue So shalt thou join the empyrean circus Where beggars mourn and seraphs dance In this twilight cathedral Shall I wed thee O Bride of the Netherworld" Sailing on the distant seas from darkness to deliverance Tales like the ocean written to the Draco's glance Ruling with the scythe of death you tear our philosophies apart An ancient starwalk to merge into the stars Join my soul the Hunter in the sky
