Lyrics Cross of Lorraine - Christ vs. Warhol

Cross of Lorraine

In the caverns of our fathers' land we sought refuge, we sought answers
We sought shelter, we sought victory and truth
They came to claim my homeland marching goose-step, thieved and plundered
Trampling freedoms, raising foreign flags upon our squares
Sheltered by a crevice with my rifle ‘gainst my shoulder
There are some causes worth offering a miniscule life
I fought for honor, when they stripped it from me
I fought for valor, clutched defiance, they called me unworthy
Command allegiance
I spit in their faces
Commanding horrors
Their atrocities against mankind, blood on their hands, they crush the cross of
lorraine
While my own brothers raise white flags of collaboration
Chastising those who dare to raise a fist of opposition
We struggle for survival against a backdrop of attrition
Withered populations forced to serve their cunning, sly oppressors
Tarnish the earth
Carnage in their wake
For a fiendish vision our humanity at stake.
