lyrics
The sphinx sinks deeper, and deeper.
Her mate still buried in the sand.
There's symmetry in the stone.
Take me to the pyramid. Gold tip, alien spaceship.
Take me to the pyramid.
My cat eye mystic, malachite instinct.
My kind has gone extinct.
Come back down to get me.
Come back down and beam me up, beam me up, beam me up.
Come back down to get me.
Caves can crawl into your mind.
Secrets hidden with the time.
Paint in the stone. Recite, rewind.
Leave no artifacts to find.
The sphinx sinks, deeper and deeper and deeper into the sand.
There's symmetry in the stone.
Take me to they pyramid. Gold tip, alien space ship.
Take me to the pyramid.
See geometric, sacred lines exit.
Circles always exist.
Come back down to get me.
Come back down and beam me up, beam me up, beam me up.
Come back down to get me.
Find all the jewelry, worship it.
Re-carve the face, but I'll never forget.
See my spirits roots, are still stuck in a tomb.
Pull me back into it, pull me back into it.
The sphinx, sinks, deeper and deeper and deeper into the sand.
There's symmetry in the stone.
Take me to the pyramid. Gold tip, alien spaceship.
Take me to the pyramid.
Try to ingest it, ancient text, hand script.
Translate the hieroglyphs.
Come back down to get me.
Come band down and beam me up, beam me up, beam me up.
Come back down to get me.
Caves can crawl into your mind.
Secrets hidden with the time.
Paint in the stone. Recite, rewind.
Leave no artifacts to find.
