Cover Your Eyes and Pray

Cover Your Eyes and Pray - Pharaoh

Lost in the wasteland losing hope

We carry on

On a mission that we don't understand

We were sent to recover the past

Our quarry's fleeting

Ghosts of failure blind our hands and minds

Submissively marching in line

Thirsty for honor starved for ideals

Lusting for distant glories

Desperate rulers put their servants to flight

But we do as we're told and we bow

Their guilt's in our hands

So the quest goes on no treasures in sight

We grope onward in a darker night

Will we make our way back home

Will our courage be exalted

Or damned in dismay

Cover your eyes and pray

Glory and pride

Won't show the way

Who is our light

And our guide

Losing every day

Years have passed and many are lost

Forgotten unmourned

As they fail so too shall we fail them in turn

Our memory's lost in the wind

The raging storm

Buries bodies deeds and all that we learned

This is the prize that we've earned

Will we make our way back home

Will our courage be exalted

Or damned in dismay

Cover your eyes and pray

In the night

Look to the sky

Watch for the lights

Wait for the sign

We'll never see

We hope in our hearts that we can find some way

To bear the decay

Cover your eyes and pray

Cover your eyes and pray

Cover your eyes and pray
