Heap of Bones Lyrics

HEAP OF BONES (mp3 sample)
(Music: Corona - Lyrics: Ballerio)

Which was the tribute due to you? Sinless lives lost...
by the sword died half a million,
maids were ravished, grain was plundered, desolation reigns
Every law is broken, null and void

A heap of bones grew day by day
Higher than every temple here
they’ve become good foundation for
The new master’s walls

Staunch people
Fire, slaughter
Tell you that you’ve won, or you’re right?

Will come the time the end of XIIth century
The earth is covered by the greatest fear...
Gloomy sky will spread the black plague,
Conceited Europe will feel the lash

the fourteen sixty-eight will come
Catholic lands shout as in a voice
Holy inquisition banishes or burns
Dangerous heresies

Marranos
Witches, Cathars
Under false trials condemned


Nailed bodies on - a burning cross
Roll, roll, roll in blood - knight crusader
drunk with force given - by his shield
Nostrils sated with - with blood’s smell

Twentieth century - barbarism
Common people are - executioners
History taught how - to use
charisma and power

Remember
the unrevealed
Life and Death are not into your hands
