Lyrics

The Crusade
Words and music written by
Matthew Dorrien

Let?s run through the woods like a couple of spies
With the wind on our backs and the moon in our eyes
We?ll be all alone
All on a summer?s night

Give me your heart but don?t be afraid
Of the stories I told or the plans I made
I was just a boy
Alone on a summer?s night

We?ll carry swords and burn a torch all through the night
And sing the songs were sung of old by ancient knights
They may find us
But they can?t bind us

THIS IS OUR CRUSADE
THE PAIN THAT WE BRAVED, I GUESS
THE RIGHTEOUS BLEED ALL THROUGH THE NIGHT

BUT NOW IS THE TIME
WITH GUNS AND SHARP KNIVES, I KNOW
WE WON?T GO DOWN THIS TIME WITHOUT A FIGHT

Our parents were good at waging a war
For beliefs we didn?t believe anymore
Now we?re all alone
All on this summer?s night
With nothing to lose and nothing to gain
Let?s run through this gauntlet of fire and rain
To be all alone
All on this summer?s night

We?ll carry swords and burn a torch all through the night
And sing the songs were sung of old by ancient knights
They may find us
But they can?t bind us

THIS IS OUR CRUSADE
THE PAIN THAT WE BRAVED, I GUESS
THE RIGHTEOUS BLEED ALL THROUGH THE NIGHT

BUT NOW IS THE TIME
WITH GUNS AND SHARP KNIVES, I KNOW
WE WON?T GO DOWN THIS TIME WITHOUT A FIGHT

Our gnashing teeth and fear we?ll sheathe all through the night
An ode to joy we shall employ by candle light
For if they find us
They cannot bind us

THIS IS OUR CRUSADE
THE PAIN THAT WE BRAVED, I GUESS
THE RIGHTEOUS BLEED ALL THROUGH THE NIGHT

BUT NOW IS THE TIME
WITH GUNS AND SHARP KNIVES, I KNOW
WE WON?T GO DOWN THIS TIME WITHOUT A FIGHT
