about

From LT: “Curse…” was a song that started from a slow traditional metal riff but ended up turning into a fairly big epic. I think if there was anything that hinted towards where we would end up with LORD, it was this song, with its orchestration and sequenced keyboard parts. This was also the first song we attempted to play to a backing track live. I can still remember the first time the orchestration swelled up just after the solo when we played it; it was pure magic.

lyrics

In the northern lands of Thebes
Under a heartless sun
Three hundred lifetimes ago

Here it lay, the Pharaoh's kingdom
Horizon of the Aten
So lived a child who would be king

PRE-CHORUS 1:
And so he lived and so he died
A tomb than no man shall defile
Forever lost are the fools who dare defy

CHORUS:
(The curse of the Pharaohs)
Inside the Pharaohs tomb the wealth of ages
A curse befallen those who seek the king
(The curse of the Pharaohs)
The lights of Cairo died with those who gave their lives
To the shifting sands of time

Came a man in search of glory
In the Valley Of The Kings
Unlocked a curse that doomed them all

PRE-CHORUS 2:
And so he lived and so he died
And all who conspired paid the price
Death will come swiftly to those who dared defy

REPEAT CHORUS

SOLO: LT

REPEAT CHORUS x2
