Crusader

The church in need of resurrection
To restore the unstable faith
Challenged the unbelievers
The holy city would be saved
Lots of true believers
Were eager to participate

As many a king and knight - Were lured by the bait

We rode off to another battle
It would lead to another raid
Depredation, our inclination
Doing Godu00b4s work was well paid
Conveying extrication
Salvation given by the sword

Butchering all heathens - Who didnu00b4t submit to our Lord

We are Crusader - On a rise of revenge
Avenge the crucifixion of our Lord
We are Crusader - On our chest we wear Godu00b4s mark
All of us were summoned to fight the dark

Words of chivalry were spoken
They were washed out by the wine
Promises of a truce were broken
Easy killing so divine
Devotion was our weakness
And the church our alibi

Raping pagan women - Only to purify

After a day of carnage
Everyone was caught
Seventy yards from paradise
The final battle would be fought
We found ourselves surrounded
By armies covered in gold

We had nothing to offer - Our souls had all been sold

Seven days the battle lasted
We were falling one by one
Even for knights there was no quarter
Left to die in a red hot sun
Captured cities retaken
Payback time had begun

Villagers were slain - Godu00b4s army on the run
