Bloody cross (10:27) Traduci ita

Musica: Francesco Serra - Francesco Tuveri
Testo: Giandomenico Sanna - Francesco Tuveri(da "Different kinds of life")

Children are brought up
believing in what few old men profess
terrified by Lucifer and by the evil he could confess

Living side by side with who's afraid
of what a bigoted old woman thinks
bending their knees by the sound of tolling bells like finks
while death wishes crowd their brains
enjoying to inflict on uncivilised misbelievers
the most cruel pains (leaving them to die in chains)

In the name of God
we arrogate the right of life or death!
In the name of God
we tell you what you must believe in!
In the name of God
let's go and spoil of blood the Holy Land!
In the name of God
we impose you the real truth!
Who is God, where was him
when he did nothing' to stop all this?

Knights in shinin' steel crossed the sea
lookin' for the roaring battle
proud to wear the Holy Cross on the field
fighting with a loud rattle...
Leaving behind blood streams
comin' out from damned deadly bodies
careless of forgettin' innocent young victims,
who commanded all these?

Searchin' their soul peace
in the absolution of an ignorant old priest
meanly thinkin' in this way
to be immune from the crawlin' beast
while the Devil has his feast!
The Pope wants so, the Church wants so,
God wants so...
It may seem strange to you what I'm saying
speakin' about churchmen
as they were all insane
you may say that crusades are over
but what about the tragedies
we everyday discover
Seems to me as if someone, if there is someone,
up there is watchin'all this as it was a TV show,
and havin' fun!
