Beneath Eternal Oceans Of Sand Lyrics - Singles - Nile

In the cosmos 

There is balm as well as bitterness 

And that balm is Nepenthe. 

Yet underneath endless oceans of sand 

I have not forgotten 

Those who had betrayed me. 

Silent and unmovable, 

I am not sorry 

For I had hated the light.

Only True Disney Fans Will Be Able To Finish These Lyrics 

Now I ride with the undead 

Across the night-sky 

And play by day 

Amongst the catacombs of Nephren-Ka 

In the sealed and unknown 

Valley of Hadoth by the Nile.

I know that light is not for me 

Save that of the moon over the rock tombs of Neb 

Nor any debauchery save the unknown feasts of Nitokris 

Beneath the great pyramid. 

But in the loneliness of entombment, 

I welcome the bitterness of alienage.
