When you're home

Tawaret

I used to think we lived at the top of the world

When the world was nothing but Egypt's map

And every night

The barque would pass by my place.

The path is dimmer now

Right?

I used to think the only limit was the sky

When the world was nothing but Egypt's map

And my thoughts took shape

By that fiery lake...

Can I remind you of what it was like

at the top of the world?

Listen to me.

We begin July

With a stop at a festival so vibrant.

You and Bast would go every summer.

Sometimes I'd attend

You'd regard me as a friend

Still blinded by your siren.

But she'd give you hell.

She gave you hell.

Yeah, she gave you hell.

I remember well.

You used to work for her father before

You got your limo.

That's where you met me!

We were always in constant trouble.

And Ra would act all snide,

but he'd let it slide.

Those days we were full of pride.

Life was easier then.

Bes, everything is easier when you're here.

The nights are a little kinder when you're here.

I wish you could see

That the days were clearer

When you were truly here or

Is it me?

Maybe it's just me...

We should probably go, but let me tell you all I know.

The sun is setting and the light is getting low.
