Heap of Bones - Adramelch

Which was the tribute due to you?

Sinless lives lost…

By the sword died half a million

Maids were ravished, grain was plundered, desolation reigns

Every law is broken, null and void

A heap of bones grew day by day

Higher than every temple here

They’ve become good foundation for

The new master’s walls

Staunch people

Fire, slaughter

Tell you that you’ve won, or you’re right?

Will come the time the end of XIIth century

The earth is covered by the greatest fear…

Gloomy sky will spread the black plague

Conceited Europe will feel the lash

The fourteen sixty-eight will come

Catholic lands shout as in a voice

Holy inquisition banishes or burns

Dangerous heresies

Marranos

Witches, Cathars

Under false trials condemned

Nailed bodies on — a burning cross

Roll, roll, roll in blood — knight crusader

Drunk with force given — by his shield

Nostrils sated with — with blood’s smell

Twentieth century — barbarism

Common people are — executioners

History taught how — to use

Charisma and power

Remember

The unrevealed

Life and Death are not into your hands
