Powerslave

These are the last words of Imhotep
half man half God but now on his death bed
it came for all of us and it came for him
Imhotep the half God but now he's dead

He bawled and he pleaded
his majestic eyes they bled
he screamed for their worship
as if, from it he could be saved

But his life had whittled
now his bone was brittle
and Imhotep
was on the way to death

The doorsteps
the face repelled
the eyes screwed shut
but nought helped

Imhotep
said nothing
in the end.

Instead his silent eyes
saw inside themselves
and he wept
as the tears fell down inside his head.
