Pharaoh's Heart Lyrics


I knew the sin completely

from the very first glorious touch

I knew the pain might defeat me

unless I threw away the crutch

Each wish has it's own price

has it's own inexorable promise

Pharaoh's Heart never open

Pharaoh's Heart is never broken

I know the consequences

of the way I have chosen to go

I bet my life on my own will to rise

and have lost more than you could know

Each wish had it's own price

had it's own inexorable promise

A cross of secrets too much to bear

Eye of the seeker holds a penitent stare

Desire is boundless

Extracting a wish

There's always a price following the promise

I knew the sin from the very first touch

I knew the pain was at least worth this much

Crossing the bridge

There can be no return

As I stood with my pride

so with my pride I will burn
