Aching floorboards spoke my name In the belly of the beast to foreign shores In tune with tides that whispered fame And fortune for our humble lord
Ecclesiastical banners Unfurl in the manner Of those who seek conquest and gain
Sail forth for outremer The promised land praised from the hands Of blasphemers amassing there Awakened from the desert landscapes
Onward christian soldiers Fated nazareth and bethlehem Have fallen to an enemy bolder It is said to widespread slaughter and rape
We are all sinners, enslaved to the cross God wills the great war to erase The judaic acres, the mohammedans In defense of our revenant faith
Political prowess takes to the stage A pilgrimage led bu the sword The sweet maiden blast of our clarion rage Against the foul heretic hordes
The blazing invader crusader parade Vatican sanctioned and mammon adored
Now, papal-led to die The fatal battle cry A natural army vies For stretching christendom
Wide, we slay the infidel Remiss our way to hell Pay well the wishing well With golden martyrdom
Scaling the towers with power ordained Dark flowers of infamy bud
Ransacking, hacking off saracen reign The temple drinks claret in floods
Mercy forgotten in our ill-gotten gain Of women and innocent blood
Death abides in this domain of ashes The streets are stained With the butchered foe Now I hear the bells of triumph ringing As they lay there rotting in their thousand shrouds Beneath the clouds That skitter and scatter Dispersions on the truth of heaven
We are all sinners, enslaved to the cross God wills the great war to erase The judaic acres, the mohammedans In defense of our revenant faith
No crescent moon No prophet of doom Shall wail above jerusalem Vast hypocrites All grasping for glitz Have taken the mount and the tomb
Here in the kingdom of loss
