Lyrics Manilla Road

Manilla Road

Fire of Asshurbanipal

I've followed the ancient rhyme

Across distant lands

A quest that has led my life

To these desert sands

Seeking the fire of the damned

This jewel

Artifact of the past

This orb of Cthul

I have found at last

A city lost in the sand

From forgotten times

Guarded by unearthly hands

A jewel red as fire

Fire of Asshurbanipal

Hides behind black temple walls

All who dare touch this gem fall

Under the black demon's claws

This jewel

Artifact of the past

This orb of Cthul

I have found at last

I dare not disturb

This breath would be my last

Heed what you've heard

Or lose your soul to the past
