VALLEY OF THE KINGS - ALBUM

RELICT

SPELLBINDER

PHARAOH

 

Hatshepsut lived in the 15th Century B.C.

At age 12 she was married to her half brother Thutmose II.

Upon his death she became Regent to his infant son, a child of a lesser wife.

But Hatshepsut was destined for greater things.

In a man's world, she would become King.

PHARAOH

SPELLBINDER

PHARAOH

 

Harem raised
To know your place
But you know
A different way

Harem raised
To be a wife
But you know
That that's not right

You're better than them.
You're better than them!

You will become Pharaoh
Fight to rule
To legitimize your claim

​
You will become the king
First of women
To rise to take your place

 

Harem raised
To know your place
But you know
A different way

Harem raised
To be a wife
But you know
That that's not right

Regent to a pharaoh child
But worthy to lead

Be wife of Amun
Claim divine birth of kings

God wife of Amun
Your journey to rule begins


You're better than that!
You're better than them!

​You're better
Better, you're better than that!

SPELLBINDER

SPELLBINDER

SPELLBINDER

  

Justice is nigh; I feel it
The choice is mine; I'll take it
You think you own my future
Brother you are mistaken (mistaken)

Cause you
Won't deny me.
You
Won't control (the spellbinder)

You hold no sway, my life is my own
A higher truth guides where I go
The wisdom of ages is my muse
An inner voice shouts "risk it all" (risk it all, risk it all)​ 


 Cause you
Won't deny me
You
Won't control.......

Cast your spell
Take control

(Spellbinder) 


BLOODLESS

BEHIND THE VEIL

SPELLBINDER

Instrumental

SLAVE

BEHIND THE VEIL

BEHIND THE VEIL

 

You live in freedom
But time is not your own (They've claimed you)

Your Habits proceed you
You've lost control
It's a daily grind

Feel you've got something to prove 
Blazin' a trail, but you're on auto pilot
Share your "unique" point of view
Think that you're special
But NO!
You're just a slave

(Just a slave)

Feeling the burden
Of your veneer (Takes its toll)


Dissension is buried
You yield control

It's a daily grind

Feel you've got something to prove 
Blazin' a trail, but you're on auto pilot
Share your "unique" point of view
Think that you're special
But NO!
You're just a slave

Thought, word, deed (Just a slave)
The ritual claims you (Just a slave)
Eat, sleep, work, serve (Just a slave)
Choice, desire, feeling GONE!


 Think you've got something to prove 
Blazin' a trail, but you're on auto pilot
Share your "unique" point of view
Think that you're special
But NO!
You're just a slave 

BEHIND THE VEIL

BEHIND THE VEIL

BEHIND THE VEIL

 

Milk and honey are never what they seem
Just gilding for my melancholy
The trappings of power a ruse that baits the trap
When every passion must hide behind a mask

Behind the veil
Where I feel!
Oh oh-oh

​The burden of power secure behind the veil
My heart is betrayed but feelings, I never will
My actions reveal what I want the world to know
But you're the one I want and I can't let it show

 Won't let it show
That I feel!
Oh oh-oh oh


 Every choice I make another stone is laid
A consequence of the power plays I've made
Accept my fate, my privilege, and my pain!

Behind the veil 

VALLEY OF THE KING

VALLEY OF THE KING

VALLEY OF THE KING

 

Stone upon stone
We build these walls
For Pharaoh we toil
Eternal

Blood we spill to give you life

Eternal

Twin needles that will touch the sky
And monuments to her name
Grand halls for funeral rites
In the Valley of the King

 

This sacrifice
An honour
She will be...
Eternal

​Blood we spill to give you life


Twin needles that will touch the sky

​And monuments to her name

Grand halls for funeral rights

​In the Valley of the King


 

Come Horus, Eye and Gate 
In the Valley of the King

Here in the sands of Thebes

Come Horus, Eye and Gate
In the Valley of the King

Blood we spill to give you life

​Eternal

AFTERLIFE

VALLEY OF THE KING

GOD OF THE UNDERWORLD

 

Ho Pharaoh!
Seeking to be reborn
Spells to adorn you 
Oil to anoint your form

Ho pharaoh!
Linen to keep you whole
Magic surrounds you
Anubis protects your soul

You've 30 days to live or die
With care the mouth will open wide

With a painted mask to hide the shell
A body whole to house the soul
You're purified to greet Osiris
Across the Nile in the Afterlife​

Where you live or die

​Ho Pharaoh!


 

Sailing the lakes of fire
Refreshed by the waters
Where none but the wicked burn

Ho Pharaoh!
Acquitted by your foes
Your name is power
A god of the underworld

You've 30 days to live or die

With a painted mask to hide the shell
A body whole to house the soul
You're purified to greet Osiris

Across the Nile in the Afterlife

Here in Abidos

Here in Abidos

Here in Abidos (heed the falcon's cry)

Here in Abidos

​Here in Abidos

​Here in Abidos


 Pharaoh!
Hold your head up high
Anubis calls you from paradise

You've 30 days to live or die
With care the mouth will open wide

With a painted mask to hide the shell
Body whole to house the soul
You're purified to greet Osiris
Across the Nile in the Afterlife

Where you live or die 

GOD OF THE UNDERWORLD

GOD OF THE UNDERWORLD

GOD OF THE UNDERWORLD

 

Ahhhh

It's magic
That I seek
Osiris
Help me

Ahhhh

 

A Merciful judge
The fires burn
On my command

God of the Underworld

My ruler and my judge

The guilty devoured

 

The pure reborn

Gof of the Underworld

In union

At my side

In the Underworld

ERASED

GOD OF THE UNDERWORLD

ERASED

 

A King at rest in my grave

These 20 years or more

​Oh, but what is this!

Fulfilled my duty with care

A Queen, to King, to God

Oh, but what is this!

Had faith the living

​Would guard with care

The tomb of Pharaoh

​But I despair

The child now man who came to power

​Defaced my works of stone

That told the stories of my rule

My epitaph to my throne

A woman of power

​But powerless

 

Lost to time and place

Oh, I have been erased

There's nothing left

​There is no sign

​Just this barren stone

My life of service to the gods

To be seen no more

​An eon we ruled

In the seat of influence

​What would have been if my story had been told

​Would my people in time think a different way​

​Would my memory open minds if I had not been erased

I am the King that no one sees

Here in the sands of Thebes

Lost to ancient memory

​I have been erased


 

Erased

Erased

Erased

​I'm Erased

Erased

Erased

Erased​

I am the King that no one sees

Here in the sands of Thebes

Lost to ancient memory

​I have been erased

DARK SKIES - SINGLE

DARK SKIES

 

I've been hearing voices inside my head

And you knew I was goin crazy

Fearing you would leave me in darkness

​You said, come on girl it's not as bad as it seems

Dark Skies, are just the way of things

​The shade that helps our gardens to grow

​Dark Skies you're never alone

​Cause everyone walks through black and white

Dark Skies but you bring the light

I was looking for the answers

But nothin was right

You were tired of beating around the bush

So you took your action

 

You said, come on girl it's not as bad as it seems
Dark Skies, are just the way of things
​The shade that helps our gardens to grow
​Dark Skies you're never alone
​Cause everyone walks through black and white
Dark Skies but you can bring the light

Looking forward not back​, Outward not in

Seeing good not bad, Silver not grey


Looking forward not back, Outward not in

Seeing good not bad, Silver not grey

​No longer looking for sunshine and roses
Just you with me
To navigate the dark times
The Dark Skies
Dark Skies
Won't bury me

BEYOND THE GATES - ALBUM

ALONE I LIE

DEFY THE DEMONS

ALONE I LIE

 

Sleep
Is my only escape
Wait for oblivion

Time
Sucks out life as I lie
Alone now
I am friendless

Match alight
I lit the fire
Burning bridges

Bit the hand
That leads to home
To feed my weakness


 Take, take
For me alone
Alone I'm lyin'

Cut the cord
The weak will fall
Alone I'm dyin'

Faults overtake me
No strength to contain them
My dreams for a good life
No will to attain them
No consequence heeded
I'm friendless and nameless
Alone I lie
In this
Bed of my making 


 Broken friendships
And endless lies

Walked away
With no goodbyes
Alone I'm dyin'

{Guitar solo}

Faults overtake me
No strength to contain them
My dreams for a good life
No will to attain them
No consequence heeded
I'm friendless and nameless
Alone I lie
In this
Bed of my making 


 Reap the harvest
Of every vice

Piper called
I paid the price
Alone I'm lyin'

Alone I lie
Alone I lie
Alone I lie 

MY LULLABY

DEFY THE DEMONS

ALONE I LIE

 

A precious thing, a hopeful dream

And then it's gone, it's too late

Life has passed, without living

Now I'm aware, and I feel the weight

Opportunities lost, in a mindless daze

Alive, but not awake

My Lullaby, awake but dreamin through life

A fallen mind, driven to the darker side

My Lullaby, innocence and evil collide

An empty life


Born for freedom, your right to possibility

But life's temptation, your soul is bleedin


 

Devil teases wants what he can get

Wakeful sleeper blindly lets him in

making decisions without using my head

My life, My Lullaby

My Lullaby, awake but dreamin through life

A fallen mind, driven to the darker side

My Lullaby, innocence and evil collide

An empty life

Devil tempts you, to walk the wrong road

Again he taunts you, your innocence his one goal

Devil teases wants what he can get

Wakeful sleeper blindly lets him in

​Making decisions without using my head


 

My life, My Lullaby

My Lullaby, awake but dreamin through life

A fallen mind, driven to the darker side

My Lullaby, innocence and evil collid

An empty life​

 

Life has passed, without living

Now I'm aware, and I feel the weight

Opportunities lost, in a mindless daze

Alive, but not awake

DEFY THE DEMONS

DEFY THE DEMONS

THE DEVIL'S RIDE

 

This life
Is broken
There's no way...out
Cause I can't defy the demons

Sweetness
Then everything turned sour
I lost my way

Beauty
Now stolen
A price to pay
For choices made
That I can't justify

Desperate times

​Desperate days


Desperate lies
Medicate my way
Everything is fine

Wasted
And broken
Shooting stars to pass the time
No will to just defy
Cause I can't defy my demons

Desperate times
Desperate days
Desperate lies
Medicate my way
Everything is fine


 These demons
These demons
They always bring me down 


THE DEVIL'S RIDE

THE DEVIL'S RIDE

THE DEVIL'S RIDE


 Temptation
Will greet you
It's seeking you out
Your weakness
Will lead you
Along the path where the villains dwell

Your actions are leading you blindly
You sin,
But you don't recognize it

You know the Devil is calling you out
He's calling you out 


 You're wretched
Fallen
Stuck by the Devil's side
Your demon's
Come a callin'
Take you place on the Devil's ride

Your courage
Defeated
You see no way out
In anger
You greeted
the savage fiend you know so well

Your dreams have been lost to your demon
Unclean
You're broken. You're bleeding 


  You're wretched
Fallen
Stuck by the Devil's side
Your demon's
Come a callin'
Take you place on the Devil's ride

Have mercy!
Have mercy!

You're wretched
Fallen
Stuck by the Devil's side
Your demon's
Come a callin'
Take you place on the Devil's ride 

SADNESS

THE DEVIL'S RIDE

PSALM 23

 

Oh this sadness, it's just madness

I can't let it go

Oh in the silence, of this sadness

Where dreams don't go

And I don't know what to do

And I don't know that to say

To make this sadness go away


 

And my heart has been pulled in

By the shades that sorrow brings

To these scars of pain

​Oh whoas


It's in these shadows

​That sadness takes its hold

PSALM 23

THE DEVIL'S RIDE

KINGDOM

IN YOUR SILENCE

IN YOUR SILENCE

 

A life of sin and greed, weighs heavy on my mind

Then Gabriel appeared to fight a battle for my life

He said

Come, come in

​Your soul wants for forgiveness

​Come feel the breath of God

And live

But I can't forget these things I've done

My malignant soul be damned

Oh the Kingdom of Heaven, won't let me in

​The guilt I feel won't purge me of my many sins

I'm lost to the Kingdom

​Deserving of disgrace


 

I'm lost to the Kingdom​


Oh the Kingdom of Heaven, won't let me in

The guit I feel won't purge me of my many sins

I'm lost to the Kingdom

These chains of sin and greed

No force will unbind

So Angels battle with my sins

As I battle with my mind

To walk among the damned

​In this unholy place

Or seek forgiveness for my sins

​And accept his holy grace​


 

I'm lost to the Kingdom

Unworthy of his grace

No rest for the wicked

​In this unholy Godforsaken place

IN YOUR SILENCE

IN YOUR SILENCE

IN YOUR SILENCE


 Your silence and trust is your strength
Your silence and your trust is your strength
Your silence and your trust is your strength

You're your own worst enemy
You cast away from me
Had light, but loved the dark
You speed to your own grave

Your own worst enemy
You cast away from me
Had light, but loved the dark
That leads to your doom 


 But He will fight
While you keep silent
He will fight
While you sleep

In your silence
And in your trust
You will find Him 

ANGEL EYES

IN YOUR SILENCE

ANGEL EYES

 

He sees my stain, but makes me clean
Sees my strength, but makes me weak
Brings me down
Lifts me up
I'm nothing
I'm nothing; I'm everything!

And now I...
And now I am His

Angel eyes they master me
Oh, bow down
Plead for release
From them

​Angel eyes they master me


 

Oh, bow down
Plead for release
From them

He sees right through me, but doesn't tease
I stand here naked. There's no escape
Fear and hope dance through my shattered mind
All of this from an angel's eyes

And now I...
And now I am His
Angel eyes that master me


The gaze of the angel pulls me in
Fights the darkness lying beneath my skin

​What kind of war is this?


 What kind of war is this?
Cause now I am His 

Angel eyes that master me
They bring light
And hope
Eternal 

FORGIVEN

BEYOND THE GATES

ANGEL EYES

 

The highway to Hell
The road most taken
Reached for my angel
The darkness faded

My heart is open
Power courses through my veins
I’m forgiven
I walk the valley
With everything to gain
No fears to weaken
I am forgiven


​Fire and brimstone
Now forgotten
Surrender the fight
And be delivered


I thought I was too far gone
Believing the Devil’s song
Snatched from a burning fate
By the gift the angel gave
Chains broken by your hand
You take in the guilty man
Now I rest in your embrace
Now I am forgiven

My heart is open
Power courses through my veins
I’m forgiven
I walk the valley
With everything to gain
No fears to weaken
I am forgiven


 Chains broken by your hand
You take in the guilty man
Now I rest in your embrace
Now I am forgiven 

I CRY NO MORE

BEYOND THE GATES

BEYOND THE GATES


 I was fallen
I was wasted
Broken and torn

Filled with greed
Black desire
My soul was at war

Then I called out
When I called out
You healed my pain

I am a sinner
But I confess
I cry no more
‘cause I am blessed 


 No stone cast
Or judgement made
Just grace bestowed

Healing hands
Of your mercy
My heart is whole

Battles fought
Battles won
I cry no more

So I thank you.
So I thank you.
For all that you’ve done 


 I am a sinner
But now I’m whole
Black to white
I cry no more
I am a sinner
But I confess
I cry no more
Cause I am blessed

Feel the warmth of your embrace
See the light of your bless’ed face

Thank you. Thank you
For this soul you saved 


 Thank you. Thank you
For this resting place

I was fallen
I was wasted
Broken and torn

Healing hands
Of your mercy
I cry no more

Battles fought
Battles won
You healed my pain

So I thank you
So I thank you
For this soul that you’ve saved 


 So I thank you
So I thank you
For this soul that you’ve saved 

BEYOND THE GATES

BEYOND THE GATES

BEYOND THE GATES


 Look back
A life beginning
A life worth living
You know belonging

First steps
And then you're falling
Cause Satan's calling
Deceived you follow

Didn't see the light 
Didn't see the light
Cause you were blinded

You were swept away...
You were swept away...
until you cried out... 


 Take me
I'm yours
Let me
Beyond the Gate

This soul
It needs
To go
Beyond the Gate

Look up
An angel waiting
A new beginning
A soul worth saving

Reach out
I AM calling
I will lead you
To the Promise Land 


 Didn't see the light
That I'd hoped would guide you
Didn't see the light
Cause you were blinded

You were swept away...
You were swept away...
until you cried out...

Take me
I'm yours
Let me
Beyond the Gate

I'll go
You lead
This soul
Beyond the Gate 


 As I walk this valley
I see no evil
Celestial voices call my name
"Your soul is needed."

Your twisted path made straight
This road to guide you
Eternal bliss awaits
The final resting place
For your so-ooooo-oul. 

With hope before me
Despair behind
I've walked through the shadows
Into the light

Take me
I'm yours
Let me
Beyond the Gate 


 I'll go
You lead
This soul
Beyond the Gate

Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust
Walked with the Fallen
Then lifted up

Take me
I'm yours
Let me
Beyond the Gate

I'll go
You lead
To life
Beyond the grave
