Anubis / Faust Lyrics


Come

Approach

My trusty jackal's nose

Don't try to lie

Cause I can smell your hide

Leave your body

Leave this body now

Your face can stay

Upon this golden mask you made

The brave in heart

Can claim eternal life

My scales of truth

Will need sufficient proof

Their balance depends

On how your soul weights

To walk with Gods

The jaws of chaos you must pass

Anubis

My soul is so light

And as this feather I can fly

Anubis

Don't let me wither and die

I am proud for what I am

The guardian of the dead

Appointed by the gods

To be their final judge

Anubis

Don't let me wither and die

All my life I strived to gain insight to things that sacred most men

Through the dungeons of the mind I learned the tricks playing with fire

Evil wears a weird facade invented to protect man's hate

For the painful, The unknown, The feared and the forbidden

I dreamed the devil was I

My quest complete

I dreamed the devil was I

I was awake

My quest complete

Faust

Captive from philosophies that root on hopes like rotten trees

I see the hanged men on their ropes

Which harvester will rip these crops?

If their soul deserved a dime their chance is lost - No bargain now

I want now all that I can get

Riches, Power, Pleasure without end

I dreamed the devil was I

My quest complete

I dreamed the devil was I

I was awake

My quest complete

Faust

I dreamed the devil was I

Faust
