Am Kreuz Lyrics

Cover art for Am Kreuz lyrics by Amenra

I think the story in Am Kreuz is quite simple. Am Kreuz is german for "On the Cross". It's the story of Jesus and his last voyage to the cross. First he gets flayed and he is torn and then his journey to be cruxified begins. The man never tells us who he is, but it's quite obvious even without saying it. The spear is the spear of Longinus and the crown is the one he was given before his cruxifiction. Maybe the woman singing in the song symbolises Mary Magdalene. There were only three women at the end anyway. His mother, his mothers sister and Mary Magdalene. The last sentances are not Jesuses last words, but he did talk to god so I see the lyrics as his last shouts to god before the end.
