Lyrics

Crusades

When the moon's in darkness

Covered by the call

And love is in the mystery of the fall

The worth of all

Reveals the message and the call

Please don't help me

We don't know where we are

We are five and fifteen under the call

A child will lead you here

To the place of the fall

A childish hand had written the curse of all

The words the peasants read, the fall

And since that time two years have passed

The starving dog is dead now

The dog is dead now

When the moon's in darkness

Covered by the call

And love is in the mystery of the fall

The worth of all

Reveals the message and the call

Please don't help me

We don't know where we are

We are five and fifteen under the call (No)

A dollish hand had written the curse of all

The dog will lead you here

To the place of the fall

A childish hand had written the curse of all

And since ten years have passed, aw hell

The starving dog is dead now

The dog is dead now

The dog is dead now

The dog is dead now

The dog is dead now

The dog is dead
