egypt - stranger than fiction lyrics

i am the sort of someone
who’ll step over the big line between paradise and reality
everyone runs a gauntlet of trust
to decide between deceit and sincerity
time is making us all grow all older
time is pushing us into responsibility
living is better than it ever was
but i’ve got to run away to save my sanity

down a muddy, murky river nile
sparkling green in burning, sunny brilliance
floats a boat with a linen sail and [?] dial
sailing with the current to deliverance
inside the tombs are still and dead underground
light shows gods and queens with erotic eyes
this beach was newer when their gold was found
two thousand years in a world of sighs

in all seriousness, i’m running away
i’m going to egypt again today
sailing through crocodiles, papyrus, water, death
to ruined temples of isis, osiris, nephthys, seth
running, running, running to stay
running to egypt, far away
oh, hathor, smile in my face
she hasn’t lost her time or place
isis and nephthys, the goddess twins
are making sure the blackness ends [?]
disappear like sand though time
they smile and talk in egyptian rhyme
but come for me and take my hand
i’m leaving this world for an ancient land

[instrumental break]

come with me and we won’t be alone
ancient egypt will make our home
