#2 by i wanna play docter with u after the amber alert is off at Jul 25, 2006 at 8:41 AM EST |
| i don't see that at all... the pharoah meaning seems to be right on. especially since all of the verses seem to deal with the pharoah's last days on earth. and him questioning why he has to die if he is a 'god'. | |

| It's about an Egyptian Pharaoh (check the album artwork for it), but the rock star metaphor works, too. The fill before the Chorus is freakin' sweet, also. | |

| THE PHAROAH MEANING IS ON THE MONEY HERE. WITH ALL THE EGYPTIAN GODS USED AS REFERENCES AND AS HOW WHEN ONE PHAROAH DIES, ANOTHER ENTERS. | |

| Song about the Pharaoh, the ancient Egyptian king or the self-acclaimed god. | |

| The Egyptian pharaohs thought that they were gods. The one in the song is dying and he is wondering why, because gods are immortal. | |
