The Nine Crusades

In the light of the dessert Sun
We're defenders of the nine crusades

In the year 1096 a time of war began
Was fooled by priest with cross in hand
We marched to foreign land
Fight the common enemy
A ghost inside my head
A story told for me to see
To justify the crime

Ancient scrolls from so long ago
They will bind us to this kingdom
Righteous ruler for all to see
You're the one to enlighten me
We're the ones to fight
And set them free

We're the storm we're the chosen ones
We're the heaven sent from the dawn of time
Marching with cross covered banners
High over Anatolia
We're under attack form a line of defence
When the archers prepare to engage
We're pushing them back and we're starting to pound
On the dunes of holy ground
In the light of the dessert Sun
We're defenders of the nine crusades

By the year 1291 the war had come to end
So many bled these fields of sand
We March for crown and land
Leave this place for all to see
A sign for all to say
A time of pain and misery
Had washed my sins away

Ancient scrolls from so long ago
They will bind us to this kingdom
Righteous ruler for all to see
You're the one to enlighten me
We're the ones to fight
And set them free

We're the storm we're the chosen ones
We're the heaven sent from the dawn of time
Marching with cross covered banners
High over Anatolia
We're under attack form a line of defence
When the archers prepare to engage
We're pushing them back and we're starting to pound
On the dunes of holy ground
In the light of the dessert Sun
We're defenders of the nine crusades

In the sand to the east
We're the ones who heed the call
For a land and a priest
He will sacrifice them all
Lost in a fury of flames
So long ago

We're the storm we're the chosen ones
We're the heaven sent from the dawn of time
Marching with cross covered banners
High over Anatolia
We're under attack form a line of defence
When the archers prepare to engage
We're pushing them back and we're starting to pound
On the dunes of holy ground
In the light of the dessert Sun
We're defenders of the nine crusades
