Nefertiti

Verse 1

Descendant of gods, wondrous being

The only light of Aton in the dark

You stood beside the madman king

In torchlight, in pride, in glory

Pre-Chorus

Beautiful one, they carved you in stone

Lips closed, eyes open

Chorus

What did it give you, my transparent queen?

What did it give you, beautiful Nefertiti?

A crown of sun that burns everyone it sees

And empty halls after the feast

Verse 2

After you, they say there was Cleopatra

After you, Helen of Troy

But after you, there was no one

Only sand covering the name

Bridge - drums only

You stood, you stood

While empires fell

Chorus - full

What did it give you, my transparent queen?

What did it give you, beautiful Nefertiti?

Gold turns to stone when you hold it too long

What did it give you?

Outro - female whisper

Aton... Aton...
