It Falls to Jerusalem |
On a silent, starless night Bohemond feigned retreat |
On a silent, starless night Antioch bled from every pore |
Helpless I watch, useless on this perch |
My wounds have healed, but still I cannot fight |
All that it took was one man’s betrayal |
Open the gates, behold the wrath of God |
Blessed are you, you who go to war |
Blessed are you, you who fight for God |
The winds are howling, crying out for change |
The southern winds are baying, crying out for love |
Such carnage, revolting |
It’s hard to stomach all the gore |
Mangled, contorted |
It’s tragic, but alas! |
They had a chance to surrender, and this is the way it’s always been |
For hundreds of years we were the targeted Kafir, fighting to hold onto each |
parcel of land |
The heart of the Jihad, pumping blood and destruction into the veins of Western |
nations |
Bohemond, clever and sly, arranged to steal away command of Antioch |
You’d break the oath you swore to return what was theirs? |
I call you coward, to cheat Alexios! |
Purged of my guilt and yet I feel no peace of mind |
We share the same blood as the beasts |
I feel it throb in every wound that I took on — balance me! |
Jerusalem is where it falls to cut out the rot from humankind |
Jerusalem is where it falls for us to choose to end the weakness in our hearts |
Under my leadership we took Jerusalem |
They offered me it’s gold, coveted crown |
How could I wear a crown of gold in the same city where Christ did wear a crown |
of thorns? |
Lead as the King of Kings, and serve your fellow man lovingly |
Jerusalem is where it falls to cut out the rot from humankind |
Jerusalem is where it falls for us to choose between forgiveness and the beast |
