Lyrics Egypt (The Chains Are on)

In the land of the lost horizon where the queen lies dark and cold
And when the stars won't shine then the story's told
Yeah
When the world was milk and honey and the magic was strong and true
Then the strange ones came and the people knew
Oh oh oh oh
That the chains were on
That the chains were on
My, my, my
In the land of no tomorrow where you pray just to end each day
And your life just slowly melts away
Each day you hear the sand as it moves and whispers
Come and sail on my golden sea
Maybe one day you'll be just like me
And that's free
But still your chains are on
Yes your chains are on
Still your chains are on
You've seen them walking on the water
You've seen them flying through the sky
They were frightening in the darkness
They had rainbows in their eyes
Yeah
When the world was milk and honey
And the magic was strong and true
Then the strange ones came and the people knew
Yes that the chains were on
That the chains were on
That the chains were on
That the chains were on
Oh my, the chains were on
In the land of the lost horizon
Where the chains are on
In the land of milk and honey
Still the chains are on
Where the queen lies dark and lonely
Still the chains are on
And the world was new and magic
But the chains are on
And the chains were on
Oh the chains are on
Yeah the chains were on
Oh the chains were on
Hey the chains were on
Seen them walking on the water
Oh the chains were on
Seen them flying through the sky
My, the chains were on
They were frightening in the darkness
Yes the chains were on
They had rainbows in their eyes
Hey the chains were on
Yeah the chains were on
Oh the chains were on
