In a distant place in time a pharaoh wandered
In his mind he could see a kingdom with this king they could not reason
Enslaved in the wish and the dream of a man who's planned their destiny
There was no way out
There can be no doubt
All he wants is his dream fulfilled and until the day when the kingdom's built
There is no way out
There can be no doubt

The blood will flow, a thousand souls plead for mercy
A thousand times over
You'll hear it on the wind
These sinners never sinned

Stone on stone they build till they day their life is over
They control with the whips and chains, they bequeath us with a life of pain
No way out of this place you gotta work until it's over
See the fire in the sky
In glory die
Cry if you must but die you will
The valley of the kings will still be built
See the fire in the sky
In glory die

The blood will flow, a thousand souls plead for mercy
A thousand times over
You'll hear it on the wind
These sinners never sinned

The king looks on and sees his dream arising
One's grave will be found in the end when his spirit's lost and one will be saved
And with him he will take it all jewels and gold will guard his soul
Feel the kiss on the wind
And the blood on the sand
It was built with flesh and blood
It wasn't built by any God
Feel the kiss on the wind
And the blood on the sand

The blood will flow, a thousand souls plead for mercy
A thousand times over
You'll hear it on the wind
These sinners never sinned

They're workin', slavin', it's your death that they lies in your fear
