Tomb 19 was sacred 1.000 years or more
|
The Mayan king was restless a curse upon the door
|
His shrouds of royal fabric his journey to be made
|
To offer spirits good and evil 14 beads of jade
|
|
The jade had ancient power or so beliefs allege
|
To anyone who plundered they would drive him to the edge
|
|
If you take the treasures of Tomb 19
|
Let the curse remind you
|
Take the treasures of Tomb 19
|
But never look behind you
|
|
On the walls of limestone temples
|
Were medallions craved in stone
|
Describing what was waiting in the Eerie catacombs
|
Though time leaves them in ruins their silhouettes pervade
|
To guard the kings and heroes and the 14 beads of jade
|
|
If you take the treasures of Tomb 19
|
Let the curse remind you
|
Take the treasures of Tomb 19
|
But never look behind you
