Secret Machines – Pharaoh's Daughter lyrics
Hold on!
The recent exchange
Is just another face arranged
By the knife edge of time
And just another waste of mine
I wonder
Was that the Pharoah's Daughter
Or the wealth I still remember?
We were dressed in uniforms left over from the war
A tourniquet, an iron vest, our emblem was a star
The younger ones looked frightened
Left unguarded by the clouds
While sons of fire with trembling hands
Burned heroes to the ground
I wonder
Was that the famous daughter
Of the well-heeled revolving oh-so-fine?
While we were building caskets
For boys with leather jackets
The girl's quite familiar
The recent exchange
Is just another face arranged
By the knife edge of time
And just another waste of mine
I wonder
Was that the Pharoah's Daughter
Or the wealth I still remember?
We were dressed in uniforms left over from the war
A tourniquet, an iron vest, our emblem was a star
The younger ones looked frightened
Left unguarded by the clouds
While sons of fire with trembling hands
Burned heroes to the ground
I wonder
Was that the famous daughter
Of the well-heeled revolving oh-so-fine?
While we were building caskets
For boys with leather jackets
The girl's quite familiar
