Akis Kapranos - Sumerian Daemon Lyrics

[Verse 1]
On the land between the rivers
Where lions fly and serpents rule
I cross the road to the ziggurat
As darkness hides the moon
I came to seek the advice of Inanna
The goddess of love and war
But the path is unclear like the words of a seer
From the movement of the dunes

[Bridge]
Windy whisperers come
From beyond the clouds
Descend with glory
To the plane earth
Gas shaped nauseous forms
Hide behind the storm
As scorpions blended
With the yellow-red sand

[Verse 2]
Before me are the steps that lead to virtual ascension
A mystical technology, the temple of dimensions
The mysteries of Sumer manifest inside the chamber
That sits upon the top of this artificial mountain
[Chorus]
Sumerian Daemon
Sumerian Daemon

[Interlude]
My veins are black from the blood of Tiamat
My eyes are wide like the wheels of space and time
My will is strong like a blow from Marduk's sword
I am no human now because I choose to know

[Bridge]
My veins are black from the blood of Tiamat
My eyes are wide like the wheels of space and time
My will is strong like a blow from Marduk's sword
I am no human now because I choose to know

[Chorus]
Sumerian Daemon
Sumerian Daemon
