Crucify The King Lyrics

Look at you now
Exhaulted no more
Scourging's left your blood
Soaked into the floor
For having the sight
You will pay a heavy price
Martyr for mankind
Contrived sacrifice

(Chorus)
Let all your childeren pray
You've washed their sins away
I'll bring the suffering
Let all your childeren pray
I don't come their way
I'll crucify their king

Look at you now
You pathetic little man
With spear I pierce your hide
Destiny in my hand
For all mine have lost
Your fate will entertwine
Your death will polarize
Resurrection will divide

(Chorus)
Let all your childeren pray
You've washed their sins away
I'll bring the suffering
Let all your childeren pray
I don't come their way
I'll crucify their king

(Bridge)
Like all false seers, you're formed to fit the plan
Unsuspecting pawns to the detriment of man
And as your worlds collide
War will bring the suffering
And to that end I'll crucify
I'll crucify the king

(Chorus)
Let all your childeren pray
You've washed their sins away
I'll bring the suffering
Let all your childeren pray
I don't come their way
I'll crucify their king

This is about Jesus and his death on the cross. I think it's from the perspective of a unbelievers. The 2nd verse is from the perspective of the solider that stabbed the spear in Jesus's side once he was dead.

This album picks up where Framing Armageddon leaves off - at the birth of Set Abominae:

"His first target is none other than Jesus Christ, whom he identifies as having the power of second sight and moves on to other great leaders, foreseers and kingdoms throughout history, his influence causing them to fall prey to the natural weaknesses of humanity, such as greed or gluttony (Crucify the King)." -wiki

You guys remember The Prophecy off of Something Wicked? The line "Assassins we will be through human history, Jesus Christ to Kennedy, the Domino Decree"?

This is related to that.

Its about them purposefully killing Jesus Christ in an attempt to Separate the Christians from the Jews. You can tell this from the line "Your Death with Polarize, Resurrection will divide".

And then followed by "As your worlds collide, you will bring the suffering". When Christians and Jews are forced to live together, they will certainly war over their beliefs.

Its an attempt to weaken man by pitting themselves against, well themselves.
