Stones Of Sorrow Lyrics
Slaves Whipped to Death
In the Hot Sun
Drag the Stones of Sorrow
Vast Monolithic a Collossus of Stone
Greased with the Blood of Abraham
Of Human Bondage
and Suffering
We carve a monument to Megalomania
Bleak and Endless is my Sorrow
For the chain of Sut
Is around my Neck
Aperu Heseb Semedet!
It is I who lift up the arm of the Inert
I have gone out of Khemenu
and am no longer a living soul
I have been initiated into the hearts of the Baboons
And I claim Dominion over the legions
of Uninscribed Shabitiu
Khunumu Khufu!
The God Khnum is my Protector
Ushabti
Tekenu
Ushabti
In the Hot Sun
Drag the Stones of Sorrow
Greased with the Blood of Abraham
and Suffering
We carve a monument to Megalomania
For the chain of Sut
Is around my Neck
It is I who lift up the arm of the Inert
I have gone out of Khemenu
and am no longer a living soul
I have been initiated into the hearts of the Baboons
And I claim Dominion over the legions
of Uninscribed Shabitiu
Khunumu Khufu!
The God Khnum is my Protector
Tekenu
Ushabti

I think it is about how, while the pyramids represent the crowning achievments of an ancient race, to the slaves who built them, they mearly represented brutal punishment and the greed of their masters.
The melody of this song is amazing.
Egypt's use of slaves in buliding of the pyramids, maybe?
