Lyric discussion by UnforgivenII 

Have any of you ever heard of indulgence...? The date is around 1000-1200 a.C., Southern Europe and the Italian peninsula, the Curch is an emerging power and is the awaited solution the the power gap created by the dark age invasions in the centralized monarchies of the old world. What happens is that the Ecclesia or church shifts from moral guide to a political power, and this implies the creation of a pontificial fiscus... Taking advantage of the fact that Faith is an essential component of the medieval mentality and behaviour, the church spread the concept of indulgence, or the ability of "bailing" someone out of purgatory, directly to heaven, thanks to a sum of money donated to the pope... here begins the process known as the fusion of pure religion end fate with the teachings of a church lead to growing corruption... I'm sorry i went through all the history, but in order to understand the meaning of leper messiah, some things must be specified. the song is beautiful and the subject treated is serious and brings us to examine our own personal conscience.
