All is dark, the moat is dry
Shadows fall, the roof lets in the sky
All these memories go 'round in my head
Of the life I have led
Minstrels play familiar melodies
And once more the past comes back to me
All these memories go 'round in my head
Of the life I have led
The grass has grown much taller now
Over running everything
Oh, oh, since I've been gone
The grass has grown much taller now
Over running everything
Oh, oh, what have I done
The grass has grown much taller now
Over running everything
Oh, oh, since I've been gone
The grass has grown much taller now
Over running everything
Oh, oh, what have I done
All is dark, the moat is dry
Shadows fall, the roof lets in the sky
All these memories go 'round in my head
What do I do next?" said the Bishop to the Priest,
"I have spent my whole life waiting, preparing for the Feast,
And now you say Jerusalem has fallen and is lost,
The King of Heathen Saracen has seized the Holy Cross;"
Then the Priest said "Oh my Bishop, we must put them to the sword,
For God in all His mercy will find a just reward,
For the Noblemen and sinners, and Knights of ready hand
Who will be the Lord's Crusader, send word through all the land,
Jerusalem is lost,
Jerusalem is lost,
Jerusalem is lost;"
"Tell me what to do," said the King upon his throne,
"But speak to me in whispers, for we are not alone,
They tell me that Jerusalem has fallen to the hand
Of some bedevilled Eastern heathen who has seized the Holy Land;"
Then the Chamberlain said "Lord, we must call upon our foes
In Spain and France and Germany to end our bitter wars,
All Christian men must be as one and gather for the fight,
You will be their leader, begin the Battle cry,
Jerusalem is lost,
Jerusalem is lost,
Jerusalem is lost"...
Ooh, high on a hill, in the town of Jerusalem,
There stood Saladin, the King of the Saracens,
Whoring and drinking and snoring and sinking, around him his army lay,
Secure in the knowledge that he had won the day;
A messenger came, blood on his feet and a wound in his chest,
"The Christians are coming!" he said, "I have seen their Cross in the West",
In a rage Saladin struck him down with his knife
And he said "I know that this man lies,
They quarrel too much, the Christians could never unite!
I am invincible, I am the King,
I am invincible, and I will win..."
Closer they came, the army of Richard the Lionheart,
Marching by day and night, with soldiers from every part,
And when the Crusaders came over the mountains and they saw Jerusalem,
They fell to their knees and prayed for her release;
They started the battle at dawn, taking the city by storm,
With horsemen and bowmen and engines of war,
They broke through the city walls,
The Heathens were flying and screaming and dying,
And the Christian swords were strong,
And Saladin ran when he heard their victory song;
"We are invincible, God is the King,
We are invincible, and we will win!"
"What do I do now?" said the Wise man to the Fool,
"I have spent my whole life searching, to find the Golden Rule,
Though centuries have disappeared, the memory still remains
Of those enemies together, could it be that way again?"
Then the Fool said "Oh you Wise men, you really make me laugh,
With your talk of vast persuasion and searching through the past,
There is only greed and evil in the men who fight today,
The Song of the Crusader has long since gone away,
Jerusalem is lost,
Jerusalem is lost,
Jerusalem is lost...
Crusader, crusader, please take me with you
The battle lies far to the east
Crusader, crusader, don't leave me alone
I want to ride out on your quest
I'm waiting, I'm waiting, to stand by your side
To fight with you over the sea
They're calling, they're calling, I have to be there
The holy land has to be free
Fight the good fight
Believe what is right
Crusader, the Lord of the Realm
Fight the good fight
With all your might
Crusader, the Lord of the Realm
We're marching, we're marching, to a land far from home
No one can say who'll return
For Christendom's sake, we'll take our revenge
On the pagans from out of the east
We Christians are coming, with swords held on high
United by faith and the cause
The Saracen heathen will soon taste our steel
Our standards will rise 'cross the land
Fight the good fight
Believe what is right
Crusader, the Lord of the Realm
Fight the good fight
With all your might
Crusader, the Lord of the Realm
To battle, to battle, the Saracen hordes
We follow the warrior king
Onward, ride onward, into the fight
We carry the sign of the cross
Warlords of England, Knights of the Realm
Spilling their blood in the sand
Crusader, crusader, the legend is born
The future will honour your deeds
Fight the good fight
Believe what is right
Crusader, the Lord of the Realm
Fight the good fight
With all your might
Crusader, the Lord of the Realm
(Come Crusader let battle commence)
Fight the good fight
Believe what is right
Crusader, the Lord of the Realm
Crusader, the Lord of the Realm
Fight the good fight
Believe what is right
Crusader, the Lord of the Realm
Tell me where you've been
Tell me were you're going
Invader
From a time unseen
You know they changed the rules
Who will listen to the things you say
When your words are only feathers in the wind
Crusader
No more good and bad
In this world of strangers
Don't wait now
Till there's no way back
To your world of fools
Who believes the mighty sword
When the truth appears like bullets from a gun
Where can you run
Who's ever gonna know your face
When you're only casting shadows on the wall
There's a wilderness
It's a no man's land
Between Alice Springs and the ocean
Seventeen hundred miles of burning sand
And a silken thread keeps a hold on you
When the emptieness like a potion tends to fray your reason strand by strand
And there's no more need for the mask your wear
When the last goodbyes have been said
So kiss the cheeks of you dearest friends
And turn to the desert ahead
Now you're on your own like a sailing ship
You're the captain, crew and sailors
Turn around and this is what you see
Chorus
This me facing me all alone
'Cause I choose to be with the wind and the sun on me only me
Now you dream so much about being lost
Your ghost by a coolebah sleeping
Haunts you and whispers in your ear
Give up give up this lonely road
No one knows the promise you're keeping
You can't touch the emptiness out here
But the grace that mends this broken wing
The blue sky to regain
Will lift those feet and raise those eyes
To face the desert again
As the dawn reveals the journey's end
In truth it's only beginning
And it's as big as your eyes wish to see
Chorus
Seeds are sown in the minds of men
Blood is spilt in name of the godsend
A fire is lit to burn the earth
Blazing so high to increase the hurt
Fight fire with fire with fire with fire,
Holding on to my common sense.
Fight fire with fire, the whole world burns
Out for blood in the age of death
Under the veil of your gods push the bloodshed
War to control, to protect, to invest
Lies to control, put the masses to rest
With hate in their hearts, hate in their souls,
the lie of treat, the lie of common goals
Conditioned through words from poisoned tongues,
force to believe, forced along in war
Harvest the thoughts in the minds of men
To justify bloodshed again and again
Of hating each other to push your crimes
Crusades veil the ending of time
Fall to arms, there's a holy war tonight.
You and me and it's time to fight
Prideful times for prideful eyes
Brother, I see right and you see blind
Respect my rights and my right beliefs
It's death to non-compliancy
And we all fall down, as this body breaks to pieces
Unity is breaking down. Hello, self-righteousness.
United, we're divided and we fall to our demise
And we all are breaking down. There's a holy war waged against our own side.
Segregate the masses, keep our corporate consciences feeding
Send more fire down from the pulpit; convince me that's just what we're needing
Onward, good soldier, you'll find this is the price you pay.
Your comrades are all occupied, stuck in their own ways.
And all the while we've fought so hard, blind, inflicting our own scars.
Forgetting where the battle's waged, it didn't even occur to us that we're already saved.
Embrace our death... It's you and me.
So we fall, proud and tall. All for one, none for all.
Each of us will find
His own way to Hell and Heaven in his life
But remember that we have two different ways -
One of dreams and one that leads us through the days
Filled with empty fuss
[Bridge I]
But if you dare just ones
Span bridge as straight as a lance
Over wild waters of Life
You'll merge into one both your ways forever...
[Chorus I]
Wind sings in your ears
Drying unwanted tears,
Will and Love and Freedom -
Crusader of Holy Light!
Each of us will find
His own way to warmth and ashes cold as night
Don't you ever think of any thing as slight -
Devil's feeding on the smallest of your frights -
In hope to rip your life!
[Bridge II]
Hesitate for a wink -
Your fiery arrow will miss
And the Evil will melt both your lives
Into meaningless nothing!
[Chorus II]
If you cease to walk blind
Your lives and reasons and will
Will grow with the Holy Light -
Blood that spilled on our land
From traitors that scarred my soul
Brave men who did support my stand
You rotting cowards left me on my own
With covetous eyes
I drink your battle cries
The blood on my sword is dry
Deserted on a field
Betrayal in their eyes
My dream has been sold out again
They left me there to die
Night is coming soon
By my sword
Revenge will mark this day
Help me on my feet
Got me on a horse
Nurse the wounded, bury the dead
I will ride again
One day I will be free
We'll kill this cancer eating our land
I followed the craven
Across the fields
With blood ignited in my eyes
No one will save them
They will concede
Staring in the darkness
Dreaming about lost victories
I hear the sound of distant pipes
Calling out to me
Father, I can hear you play
It brings back tears and memories
The lament of long lost regions
I will come to thee
Thousands of warriors getting near
All of them called back from the grave
The army you have sent for me
Mighty, fierce and brave
Take me to my father
Take me back to the past
I'll carry him inside me
Guide me to the stars
Xioban - my daughter - listen to me
Your tears are dry - the time has come
(To) defend the honour of our clan
Force the en'my from our house
The blood of our clan runs through your veins
Beware the blackness of their hearts
Lament of lost regions has been heard
Fought my way through the massacre
Everyone's hate was fixed on me
You, your mother and our clan
Gave me energy
I had to slay them one by one
Trying to reach the dark one's gate
I knew I had to stop him now
Before it was too late
One dark image blocks the sun
A giant warbird takes control
It's evil force shoots through my heart
Causing our clan to fall
Nothing more that I can do
My army slain - my power gone
I ride with Satan, side by side
He takes my soul
For ten thousand years
I fought every war
All engaged my skills
It was what I was living for
Violence kept me alive
I lived hard and fast
Each battle I survived
Always thinking it would be my last
Son of a thousand fathers
Bearer of no name
Keeper of your nightmares
Incentive to your pain
I ride my fearsome horse
I swing my poisoned blade
He who calls upon me
Embraces death as fate
I never chose a war
It would always find me
Never could I turn my back
It was where I had to be
Summon me as your ally
If you know the spell
I will slay your enemies
And you will pay your debt to Hell
The image that reflects
Right before my eyes
Is made of pain and misery
Scarlet flashes are all I see
You cannot flee
For I have come for thee
I'll take you on a journey
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 God's work was well paid
Conveying extrication
Salvation given by the sword
Butchering all heathens
Who didn't 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 God's 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
Every poem fails to rhyme
Every song is out of key
Food is tasteless
At night I wake and cry
My life becomes unreal
You have fought, my friend
Celebrate the demon slain
Embrace your life ahead
For on that day
The gods rewrote your name
Every face looks like a grime
Every voice calls out to me
My hands are useless
All day it blocks my mind
My life is bound to thee
You have fought, my friend
Celebrate the demon slain
Embrace your life ahead
For on that day
The gods rewrote your name
You are free, my friend
The Reaper holds your broken chain
In awe he bows his head
And from his list
He kindly strikes your name
Every face now seems to smile
Have you ever heard
Of a leprechaun before
If not, it might be time for you
To learn a little more
Above all, I say this
They're not just a fairy tale
Last night one was in my house
He sure as hell was real
If you should ever catch one
On Saint Patrick's day
The merry fellow will submit
And give his gold away
He'll try to save his skin
And to you, so it is told
He will give without dispute
His precious pot of gold
Please leave them alone
And let their business be their own
They're only part of this world
Honour the leprechauns
They have done no wrong
So pack your stuff and run along
Don't make a foll of us all
They're only three feet tall
Don't you ever trade with them
Because before you know
They will surely pull a scam
Consider yourself warned
They always hold two coins
The first will turn to stone
The second one will once it's spent
In this time
When brother poisons brother
To secure his grip on the throne
Kings believe lies told by others
Since long their hearts have turned to stone
Do we look to anyone who bothers
Before this kingdom will be torn apart
Do we pray to the holy mother
To find us a king who is pure of heart
Stop the clansmen fighting
We are king of kings
A mighty warrior, pure of heart
King of kings
The legends write my name in blood
King of kings
The land will soon be free
Don't fall for monks
And their sermons
Empty words do not sooth the pain
Nor do they fill our hungry bellies
Or provide shelter from the rain
Now the king... is slowly dying
Greedy lords rape the land like a whore
Loyal servants are mourning, crying
While they drink the spit from the floor
People survive... on bread and water
In the court they're drunk from the feast
The king has died and his son succeeds him
Walking the forest roads
In search of the truth
Hundred years of agony
The voice of the Lord roared
"It's all up to you"
"You will set the people free..."
Archangels call upon me
To take command of the troops
Embark on the mission the Lord has given me
I left the strawberry fields
Of the river valley
My Lord and Master leading way
Hundreds of miles I covered
To finally claim
My inheritance, my God given name
Archangels call upon me
To take command of the troops
Embark on the mission the Lord has given me
I fear the pain
But with the Lord beside me
Everyone's heard of my name
Armoured and confident
I'll crown the King
France will be rightfully reclaimed
War against the English
Many young men died
A century of pain and fear
Many buried their children
All have known great loss
God forsake this hell we've seen
I, Maid of Orleans
Devout saint of God
Brought victory to the whole of France
I, Joan of Arc
Accused of heresy
I could never leave you
Or ever see you go
My life depends upon you
My heart just couldn't stand the blow
I could never deceive you
Hurt you or cause you pain
My world evolves around you
Without you I'd go insane
All I wanna do
Is grow old with you
Roaring falls and rivers wild
Guide water to sea
From the day that we have first met
You've been guiding me
All our oceans couldn't survive
Without this royal feed
I'm endless like the sea
As long as you're with me
In my life I've been around
I've seen the come and go
Once I was a wild one
And I took my share of blows
But none of all those women
Could ever compare to you
You're the sun among stars
I watch you dancing in front of the fire
Your hair makes waves on the curtain of night
Your eyes brightly glancing,
You wake my desire
Our bodies like melting steel merge in the flames
I carry you to my tent
Gently lay you on the furs
Your tender body submits as I abuse your soul
You are a soldier's whore
Not even mine to keep
Tomorrow - you'll sleep
In another man's arms
All you are doing this for's some money and a feed
For one night you make us
Forget this hell
I carry you to my tent
Gently lay you on the furs
Your tender body submits as I abuse your soul
Gather around
Flowers of War
Join this pact of dying men
The courage we've found
You magnificent whore
You can heal our pain
I hear you singing like a thousand nightingales
Your voice grows flowers
In the core of my heart
Whisper like summer wind
Tell the sweetest tales
Our lips like dancing eels
Grasp the taste of lust
You are a wench of war
You turn your heart to stone
Tomorrow - you'll sleep
In another man's arms
Once we've returned back home
You will be all alone
For every man
Will haste himself
Whoever slays a dragon
Will never take a fall
He's predestined to conquer
Let it be known to all
Crush my pride and honour
Make a fortune, sell my skin
Divide me into potions
Slander my name, black as sin
So then come the hunters
Sent by their messiahs
Blind men following sermons
Puppets in the hands of liars
You saw my pain - saw my soul bleed
You saw the anger towards your breed
There ain't no remedy against human greed
Why do you search for my defeat
Why do dragons always have to die
My strength and power feed their hate
They're frightened by the unknown
The legend grows - they fear my name
My image is carved in stone
So this is what my life became
Forever hide and seek
From day to day - a deadly game
A quiet night
All stars are out
Disrupted by a roaring bike
He's all alone
He's going home
We've all been there before
Left nor right
No cars in sight
And slowing down's a waste of time
The blinding lights
The burning tyres
We've all heard'em before
Hey bartender, one more round
I need salvation
For me this year's been really hard
All I need's one more
Fill the glasses to the top
Don't be stingy
I need to drown my aching heart
Before I can go home
A violent crash
The street's a mess
He's got no choice but to confess
One last call
Pour drinks for all
We've all been there before
And now, out cold
With broken bones
Again he won't be coming home
A crying child
A distant sirene
Streets filled with joy
Children come out to play
Worries far gone
The world seems to have fun today
All colours bright and gay
Are whirling around
Cheerful music plays
Hypnotising sounds
Oh, on with the show
On your darkest day
Oh, these clowns you enjoy
Your children, I rape
We're harlequins of deceit
Hiding behind our paint
Midgets and freaks
Enticing your kids away
This glorious pageantry
Threatens your town
Chanting gallantly
We are tradesmen of the young
Hysterical countrymen
Protect their progeny
Fools drawing swords
Like flowers with useless thorns
Families torn apart
By our side-show of fear
Our very bitter carnival
The air in our town
Needs to be purified
The breath of our enemies
Is spreading a lie
We're yearning for freedom
We're waiting for that day
It goes hand in hand
With bloodshed and pain
God forbid we yield
Courage is all we need
The Beast is on his way
We've lived for this day
... on his way
The Lion has found his prey
No more slavery
No more chains
Kill this hypocrisy
Fight for what remains
Gather before me
Now hear what I say
None of you have lived before this day
Tolerate no longer
Oppression from below
Think of the children you'll be leaving on their own
The Beast is coming
He's swinging several heads
Each one is capable of killing with it's breath
Drink from this ale
Now, dance one more time
Every artwork comes to life
Once light and dark collide
One without the other couldn't survive
It takes two contradictions
To add color to our (sight)
For every creature given birth
Another one must die
It's nature's way to keep it in line
Life and death provide us
With a perfect sense of time
Every passion is like fuel
It conquers endless roads
Love and hate are horns on the same goat
Music is one way
For strong emotions to un(load)
A gentle breeze, how innocent
Can easily change it's form
Combining elements into a deadly force
A stream of air is all it takes
To create the perfect storm
Standing on a crowded field
All hope to see next dawn
Whatever comes, we will not flee
Here we both belong
Soon we'll face all hostile clans
Several thousands strong
Whatever comes, we'll take a stand
We can't both be wrong
Every song becomes worthwhile
Once Shredder sets the sound
The war he plays is well known all around
He's heavy metal king
We demand some recognition
For it is our god given right
Shout it out
The world must listen
For finally the clans will unite
I've seen them march downhill
And I will lead them on the field
My name is Angus
I won't be falling
I want a country of my own
I've seen those liars
They'll soon come crawling
I want a true king on that throne
I command a glorious army
For freedom these patriots will fight
We protect our lawful legacy
Assailing the English with all our might
We decline any servitude
No man abides by English law
See approach proud Edward's power
Once I emerged from no man's land
Existing of shadows
Your future in my hand
Some say I was sent here
Straight from the womb
Coming to protect her in this world of doom
You burned her forests
Turned her rivers black
Killed her smaller brothers
Locked her sisters to the rack
But now the end is near
The only thing upright
Mother will not see your fight
Mother was raped
More than before
Treated like dirt
Call of a whore
Black Knight was resting
I rose again
My plague'll bring back
Agony and pain
Unleashing bloody battles
In the christian god's name
Showing no humanity,
Taking no blame
I count on Mother's vengeance
Coming over them soon
I read it in the Stars,
In the changing of the Moon
I knew She would send me,
Her great Black Knight
I abhor remorse,
I kill who's in sight
None shall I forbear, no exceptions made
With words I shall not converse,
Listen to my blade
My sword writes the odes
To mouldering decay
A song that's sung in unison
By all you, living prey
My victims shan't be buried,
They must burn!
Human kind will never learn
I looked into the future
And I saw what had to come
Human kind will always be
So selfish and so dumb
I've seen black water,
No forest to be found
December night
Dark and cold
A newborn's on it's way
All disputes on hold
To meet the future
A woman screams
A man cries out
A child has come our way
All fierce warriors fold
And greet the girl in turn
Now that you're among us
We'll never let you go
You can rule this world
Kings will kneel before you
And fight for you
As long as your heart is pure
Should all kingdoms burn
Make the world adore you
And they'll die for you
As long as you make sure
Your heart is pure
Snow is back
A year has passed
Many things have changed
Curiosity's made
Her eyes much brighter
One day soon
She'll be a queen
With pride we've passed our name
Her loveliness can slay
Through the years, like feuding clans
We often had our wars
Anger and frustration
For one is like the other
Through the tears, like water running
From a broken jar
I always came back home to you
From up high, like falling leaves
We gently swirled down
Tolerance and patience
For one's still like the other
To the sky, like reigning oaks
We grew tall from the ground
For I have come back home to you
Every word in every fight
Caused a world of hurt
All the hurt from all the fights
Is merely one small world
All the grief and pain
Have brought us together
Once we were as one
And back to one we grow
A solid forge like this
Is bound to last forever
In on direction only
Blood will flow
Nowadays, like allied clans
We fight each other's wars
Our ties were never stronger
For one is like the other
I can say that current days
Are the time that we've had
I lost my family
To the black plague
I asked God why
Did we make a mistake
I should have gone with them
Through the heaven's gate
I want my time to come
I know I'll have to wait
I saved half the town
With my recipe
Nature's secrets
Are all well-known to me
I should have let them suffer
I should have let them die
Cause now they all claim
What a wicked witch am I
Belladonna
Make this nightmare go away
Sing me a lullaby, it's much too late to pray
Use your sedating power
Make me close my eyes
Kill my soul
Make me sleep before I...
Black clouds darken the sky
Still the Moon's so bright
I'm gonna die
On this dark and scary night
The priest leads them to me
And I wait patiently
Knowing what will happen
I'll see my family
I smell my flesh burning
Turning scorched and black
But I cannot feel
The flames that lick my back
Thank you belladonna
For protecting me
For now I'll die in grace
Slowly walk the western wave,
Spirit of the night
Leave your eastern cave
Wander over land and sea,
Chase away the light
In dreams of dark appear
Your mortal thoughts be heard in heaven
Driving everyone insane
Clothe yourself in capes of grey,
Stud your crown with stars
Blind the eyes of Day
The sun is set, all are asleep,
Only bats fly fast
And I in corners creep
Your mortal thoughts be heard in heaven
Driving everyone insane
I can't see clear through your mind
But I can feel the demons haunting you
I can't read it in your smile
Lady wouldst thou me
When I arose, the light was riding
High into the sky
How I wished for you
The dew was gone, day turned to rest
Like an unwanted guest
How I longed for you
Thy brother Death is also crying
To sleep near your side
And I replied...
Now I've lost the art of sleeping
And Death will come for me
I'm the knight in black
I sweep the field clean for you
I'm the one they tend to call insane
I'm a fierce attack
I lead the armies for you
I'm the one out fighting for your name
I'm a sideshow act
My cuts and scars disgust you
Countless battles have deformed my face
I'm a Satan's pact
My heart's been cut out, bled dry
Sleepless night have made me see your ways
I have protected you
Devoted my life to you
I've been your confidant and friend
I handed you glory and fame
I gave you everything and I
I've had enough
Enough of your "win or die"
I'm a freak at night
Children are afraid to be near me
Even my own kin's filled with dismay
I avoid the light
Eternal darkness thrills me
No one cares about my soul, my pain
I'm the beast of might
And as a beast you treat me
All I ask for is to break these chains
I was created to fight
You made a monster of me
I renounced my oath and I broke my blade
Now I'm coming for you
You don't think I'm human
I got a mind, a body and a soul
You won't see this through
This hour of retaliation
Silent shadows
Disturb the snow
Vast remains of a world we used to know
Distant thunder
Is pounding low
The eve of death has never felt so cold
Dogs are howling
For they all know
The raging terror crawling from below
The evening sky
A million crows
Tortured souls
The twelve will soon be gone
As was foretold
Thousands of outcasts moving along
Seven years
Through the snow
Let them be lords for one day
Their quest for freedom is bound to fail
Go tell the sun we're on our way
Come with us
Prevail
From their high thrones
The stars look down
The face of night with light like hope does frown
A painful breeze
The breath of god
Chases twelve to the mountains where they fought
The mist that hung
Upon the trees
Upon the mountains they fought the mystery
Of mysteries
That no one sees
They fought belief
The airs that brood over solitude
Palpitate in the hearts of their troops
The twelve have fought
What remains unseen
To you I'm just a memory
An image of the one you loved
My eyes are cold and empty
When I'm looking down from above
To you I might be nothing
But I'm very much in pain
I realize I've lost you
And it's driving me insane
By the Lords that rule this world
I swear I will return
For my Kingdom and my Love
I'm shouting out
Iris tried to take my life
Deprived me of this coil
Here's my soul
And I know...
She only took my body
The mortal flesh
Here's my soul
And I know...
That even death can't keep us apart
Kneel beside my body
Never let it fall apart
From the smell of my withering flesh
To the stains on your sleepy heart
Reconquer my empty shell
Feel the armour on my back
Demons enter heaven
Only death can bring me back
By the Lords that rule this world
I swear I will return
For my Kingdom and my Love
Walls enclose my body
Take away my breath
Prison bars are chocking me
Rusty, cold and dense
Nobody to hear me
Yet I am not alone
Faces of dead children
Haunt me all night long
Time will never turn
A red glowing horizon
Brings the final dawn
A colorful world comes to life
Outside these prison walls
Many voices in the streets
Are shouting out my name
They all wanna see me hang
And die at noon today
They want me to confess
Before the eyes of God
Free myself from Satan's token
Send my soul to heaven
But I will die with pride
Face their torture all day long
Ultimately torn and broken
I will burn forever
A symphony of footsteps
Echoes in my cell
A playful show of dancing flames
Will free me from this hell
The weight of fear and anger
Deprives me of my will
It's time for me to leave this world
My mission's been fulfilled
I will always be your friend
I will never let you go
You will be my little angel
You can call me uncle Joe
I will never cause you pain
Well, maybe just a little
Step inside - don't be afraid
This old cage is now your cradle
I'm a nasty human being
Banished from society
I'm rejected by the angels
Even hell refuses me
I am merely a deliever
Healthy profit is my goal
I scar and mutilate your children
For a royal bag of gold
For as long as high society
Spends this much on luxuries
There'll be wolves around
I'm a part of nature's design
I never chose to be this way
Every mouse should know when to hide
And every doggy has it's day
You know well my social status
So respectfully decline
I provide a higher service
To the leaders of mankind
Now don't patronize me judge
As the hypocrite you are
I remember you as cruelest
Most disgusting one of all
When I'm dead there'll be another
And another one after that
For each rotting corpse
High on the bluffs ready to fight
And to die, there is no time.
Neglected fear, anger and pain
It's the last war, it's in vain.
His promise is to truly fight
On the side of Christian God
And defending Lion Heart.
Still greed, meanness and the force
Brings the army to the loss
And it's nearly half-destroyed.
Forsaken man in Holy land losing horse walking on foot.
Saving himself from Turkish rage and escaping with the gloom.
The knight is weak he lost his pride
Wandering on until he dies.
Reveals the truth about his sin
And he knows it's late to win.
Marching across the wasted land
Knight is wounded with no faith
Trying to find a runaway.
The sky is red with fiery signs
All hopes are now burned alive
And the glory left behind.
Forsaken man in Holy land losing horse walking on foot.
Saving himself from Turkish rage and escaping with the gloom.
The greed killed you, a crusader, the blood in your eyes.
You're guilty, a crusader, your soul soon dies.

I won't suffer this any longer
Counting, Counting, Counting on you now.
There is a void in my chest
There is a lack of air
Counting, Counting, Counting on you now.
Counting, Counting, Counting on you now.
Oh I am insane and look how far they are from tame
Oh I am insane and look how far they are from tame
1, 2, Eat this is a feast
1, 2, Eat this is a feast
Let me see if hell kept a special place for me
A living legend I will be
My eyes are plucked out, I can't see
I can't see what's beyond me
1, 2, Eat
This is a feast
My skin is crawling, crawling on your platter
Smiles through smoke, I'm gonna choke
Oh god, they've taken my legs
Oh god, they've taken my legs
They won't stop laughing
They won't stop laughing at me.
They won't stop laughing
They won't stop laughing at me.
Riding in righteous rage, laying waste the land
Killing women, children, beast, and man
Raping the young, torturing the old
Forging your way to streets of gold
Madness is in your eyes, the cross upon your chest
You want to die in battle because you know you are blessed
Stealing, plundering, No! Take that which is rightfully yours
Your book of insane dreams and tyrant king told you so
Destroy the non-believers just to save your soul
Evangelize the land make it pure again
Madness is in your eyes, the cross upon your chest
You want to die in battle
Crusader, kill to please your god above
Crusader, make a joyful sound
Spill the blood upon the ground
You gasp your last breath of icy aytumn frost
You look into the eyes of the youth whom to your life is lost
Cast your blurry glance to the skies, realize
No one comes to take your hand from your promised land
Madness is in your eyes, the cross upon your chest
You want to die in battle
Madness is in your eyes, the cross upon your chest
Crimson gushes from your mouth as you wait for death
Crusader, kill to please your god above
Crusader, make a joyful sound
