[Intro]
Sand in my lungs
Ash on my tongue
Torches in rows
Everything goes
[Verse 1]
Black jackal mask in the torchlight
Gold teeth grin at your poor life
Scales tip slow on the cold night
Heart on the plate, better hold tight
Hear the priests hum names in a dead tongue
Carved on the wall where the dead hung
You came rich, leave dust in a red flood
Paint on the stones, all rust, all shed blood
[Chorus]
Anubis, call my name at the gate
Jackal eyes watching what you can’t take
Weigh me, break me, rip me apart
Judge this flesh
Guard my heart
Anubis, I walk through the flame
Chains on my sins, set ’em all ablaze
Lead me, bleed me, tear me in two
If I am false
Feed me to doom
[Verse 2]
Steps echo loud in the deep tomb
Every last breath tastes like old doom
Gold on the walls, eyes cut from black glass
Follow each move, watch every slight chance
I don’t bow down, I just stand straight
Scarabs crawl slow on the sealed gate
Whispers in sand say “you can’t fake”
Every last word when the hands shake
[Bridge]
[Beat drops to stomping drums and low guitars]
Left side
Right side
Scales rise
You hide
Heart light?
Or heavy like stone?
One life
Ends
Here
Alone
[Chorus]
Anubis, call my name at the gate
Jackal eyes watching what you can’t take
Weigh me, break me, rip me apart
Judge this flesh
Guard my heart
Anubis, I walk through the flame
Chains on my sins, set ’em all ablaze
Lead me, bleed me, tear me in two
If I am false
Feed me to doom
