Lyrics
[How the events of the 13th century are remembered today, and does it really have any boaring on today's society]
A country splintered by religion Torn by anarchy Heretics burned for their derision of the holy see Seven hundred years on
World, do you recall Just what happened then Gentlemen and gentlewomen Let into the pyre Seven hundred years ago
Let's think Images of war Flashing swords, burning homes The albigensian crusade See the ruins upon the hills Just seven hundred years on
So now in nineteen eighty nine How much do we know Except for learned scholars No-one knows at all
Blind Apathy Forgotten A part of history
Flashing swords, burning homes The albigensian crusade See the ruins upon the hills Just seven hundred years on
To blind to see that religion's free Believe what you believe Established churches still don't agree Seven hundred years on
Heresy a different route From mother church in rome See us, we're hurting no-one Why can't you leave us alone
Hunted Persued Burnt Marched into the fire Oh, then!
