The Counter-Crusade - Bulldozer, Billy Sheehan

Like inquisition, a few centuries later

the movement of brothers was formed to stop

the culture of freedom, a new western mentality:

nothing’s important, including religion

new ways to be happy, movies, TV just need a job: get money to spend

no more time to pray, no time for their god

the movement of brothers kills the enemies of faith

War of proud culture

the «Counter-Crusade», the target’s to break:

the symbol of the western empire

holy war of cruel fighters

the «Counter-Crusade», a bloody revenge

against who believes in the cross

Recited:

In the face of all my enemies

I am a reproach

an object of scorn to my neighbours

and of fear to my friends

those who see me in the street

run far away from me I am like a dead man, forgotten in men’s heart

like a thing thrown away

The culture of hate, the hunt for the heretics

Believers were orced to be soldiers of death

the brothers inspired new movements and sects

seeking the extreme behaviour of dread

and preachers incite: be ready to die

the best way to live, to kill and destroy

fight and perfection: they made that connection

and turned the tradition into religion of death
