The Holy Ghost can't save you anymore
Your souls are condemned to burn in hell
Damned for all time
So spoke the noble one
He convinced us all
He is a gifted man
Though he will slaughter in the name of Christ
Holy and bright
He's a devil in disguise
Protector of the cross
Beware of the snake
[Chorus]
All in all it's just a poor man's crusade
Poor man's crusade
The Holy Land home of our blessed lord
Enslaved and stained by godless hands
They shall be damned
Jerusalem
Is waiting for you
To rise once again
So we will slaughter in the name of Christ
Holy father, holy father
[Chorus]
You'll shed your blood
Your bodies fall
That is the price you'll pay
To cleanse you of your sins
Vicious and cruel
Let's kill them all
Let's kill them all
So we will slaughter in the name of Christ
Holy father, holy father
[Chorus]
Your souls are condemned to burn in hell
Damned for all time
So spoke the noble one
He convinced us all
He is a gifted man
Though he will slaughter in the name of Christ
Holy and bright
He's a devil in disguise
Protector of the cross
Beware of the snake
[Chorus]
All in all it's just a poor man's crusade
Poor man's crusade
The Holy Land home of our blessed lord
Enslaved and stained by godless hands
They shall be damned
Jerusalem
Is waiting for you
To rise once again
So we will slaughter in the name of Christ
Holy father, holy father
[Chorus]
You'll shed your blood
Your bodies fall
That is the price you'll pay
To cleanse you of your sins
Vicious and cruel
Let's kill them all
Let's kill them all
So we will slaughter in the name of Christ
Holy father, holy father
[Chorus]

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
This is a great song. And it just might get me hooked on Demons and Wizards. Mmm, good music.
its about a paladins quest to rid the world of evil..?
I would prabably have liked this song (and the band for that matter), but I just can't stand Blind Guardians vocalist, I don't even understand why they make him sing instead of Matt Barlow, cause he's so much better, and he's not that annoying...
Spanish Inquisition.
This song is about the corruption of religion during the time of the crusades. The rich could buy religious positions if they wanted to or just simply not work at all while the poor fought for the rich. The rich are fighting a useless war "slaughter in the name of Christ" that phrase makes no sense and the wars were useless. Thats how we get poor mans crusade.
"Holy and bright He's a devil in disguise Protector of the cross Beware of the snake"
i love this part because i think its about the pope
Couldnt This Song Be About The Crusades, Not About The Corruption Of Religon During That Time......To Me It Makes More Sense Thinking About It That Way...
When one talks about the crusades one has to include the corruption of the Catholic Church at that time, and vice-versa.
It's all about the corrupt Catholic Church during the Crusades.
There's strong evidence to believe this song is about the Antichrist:
He is a gifted man who will deceive many, and those he deceives are condemned to hell: "The Holy Ghost can't save you anymore Your souls are condemned to burn in hell Damned for all time So spoke the noble one He convinced us all He is a gifted man"
He will walk into the temple in Jerusalem and declare himself God: "Jerusalem Is waiting for you To rise once again"
I think the meaning of this song, is well descripted in the song title. Is about the other crusades, that happened parallel to the oficial crusade ( the one of the noble mans or the statement of the privilege) this was planned by people that say to be prophets ( many of this people were part of the little noble ) and they motivate the masses to kill in the name of jesus because THEY were the chosen ones to liberate jerusalem. I found this reading the crusade of " the people of the tafurs " and the movement of the pastoreux in XIII. This poors crusade were know for their violence and disasters. Sorry for the bad english.
