Crusade Of Brutality

Burning piles of bodies, consumed by flames of hate
Tormented, then put to the torch, death at the stake
Brutal ways of conversion, so many had to endure
Sadistic religious freaks, who thought themselves so pure

Imprisoned, without conviction
Tortured, into confession
Inflicting, blind oppression
Trial, by inquisition

Persecution, insanity
In the name of Christianity
Scream on the rack, burn at the stake
Confess to blasphemy

Bleed for the cross, a heretic's fate
For non-conformity
Thousands that died, never knew why
Condemned to infamy

Mutilated, skinned alive
Crusade of brutality
Brought before a secret court, your trial now begins
Tortured without mercy till you confess your sins

Convicted of unholy deeds, fed to hungry flames
Innocent or guilty, slaughtered just the same
Imprisoned without conviction
Tortured into confession

Inflicting blind oppression
Trial by inquisition
Persecution, insanity
In the name of Christianity

Scream on the rack, burn at the stake
Confess to blasphemy
Bleed for the cross, a heretic's fate
For non-conformity

Thousands that died, never knew why
Condemned to infamy
Mutilated, skinned alive
Crusade of brutality
