Cage - The Expedition lyrics

What have you done my wife? I'll beat you to an inch of your life I'll try to explain if you kindly refrain Then I sliced with the blade of my knife Allistar I beat him bloody battered to the bone My eyes were glazed with craziness I lost all control I drew my sword and pressed it squarely straight into his chest I said tell me what have you done or I'll lay you to rest A mystical place seen by no one So we set off on the expedition No turning back, nowhere to run I now know my journey to hell had begun Come with me come with me, on the expedition Such secrets you will see, on the expedition Let me take you back, not but ten years ago A village in Egypt that I called my home My father, a doctor well known His dreams, he would share them alone I learned his ways I could amaze the people with my healing My destiny was not to be what Daddy did desire I yearned to find the secrets that the desert was concealing A longing for adventure in me burning like a fire The tomb of Osiris buried under centuries of sand I knew, I knew I had to find it Something beckoned me and forced my hand With my father's funding I a**embled all the best One hundred men, supplies and archaeologists We set out in the sands and followed faded clues Something strangely guided me It somehow ted me to the tomb of Osiris After forty days and night we finally came to the site Gazing at the ruins by moonlight We set up our camp and began to explore Amazing the ma**ive size of that door Digging scraping excavating ruins in the dust The writings on that giant door were warnings we should trust They spoke about an ancient race, the old ones from the stars My scientist's translations told of creatures quite bizarre The tomb of Osiris buried under centuries of sand I knew, I knew I had to find it Something beckoned me and forced my hand With my father's funding I a**embled all the best One hundred men, supplies and archaeologists We set out in the sands and followed faded clues Something strangely guided me It somehow ted me to the tomb of Osiris For twenty days and nights we worked at the site Nothing we did would go right, trying to open that door My men had not seen nothing like this before
