Hello everyone! This is a little piece of the very first Patreon live online show Erik and I gave, right from my living room :)

We held a voting between two covers, and my patrons chose this one for us to play: the beautiful "Valley of the Queens" by Ayreon's mastermind Arjen Lucassen! I just love this song, it has such a timeless feeling! We hope you like our version :)

Both Erik and I had the greatest time doing this, and are already making plans to do some more online shows in the future! Join my Patreon page to watch the whole show recording, and be part of more things like this! https://www.patreon.com/marcelabovio

Lyrics:
My journey's over,
I'm standing on the edge,
And close my eyes
To this world of lies.
My will is broken,
It's the end of all my dreams.
My soul yearns
For the valley of the queens.

My rose has withered,
It will never bloom again.
The soil is dry,
Time has come to die.
My faith has left me,
They have stolen all my dreams,
Oh lay me down
In the valley of the queens.

My search has ended,
My name is carved in stone
On the temple wall
Beyond Osiris' hall.
No holy sunrays
Will light my tomb of dreams.
I won't return
From the valley of... the queens
