4. 1567 - Under the Blood Campaign (4:08)
Charles V was old and weak when he abdicated his throne
Philip II was impopular but his only son
He was no statesman but a crusader of The Roman Church
A grave and sombre man resolved to heretic purge
The hunt on the heretics brought the Dutch in state of war

200 Nobles petitioned Philip to not institute the feared Inquisition Court
Philip refused the petition and burned more heretics at the stake
A mass revolt broke out feeded with unanimous hate

Yeah we pull down the images of the false church
We pillage the temples of the popery
Defacing the paintings and tapestries of ancient Rome

With fierce contempt we destroy the symbols of the dishonest
The Dutch flee to everywhere to escape the Spanish punishing

The Dutch stubborn as always started to provoke Philip II
Mass revolts in the Netherlands start with anti-Catholic looting
The Iconoclasm Fury broke out and idolatry burnt
Philip was outraged and condemned the Netherlands to the Bloodcampaign

The ravagings of the churches filled Philip with great disgust
"Strangle, burn, behead them!"
He ordered punishment with iron fist

He sent duke Alva to the Netherlands with 20,000 Spanish troops
Arrived in Brussels he immediately instituted the feared Council of Blood

Cruel religious terror swept over the land with a relentless full force
His Counter Reformation sentenced countless people to be burned upon the stake
Heretic corpses everywhere, columns and stakes await every single street
The Duke punished with an art of torture beyond Saddams wildest fantasies

Silhouettes of butcheries and martyrdoms
A new skyline was born
To terrify the Dutch he killed count Egmond and Lord Hoorne
A shockwave went through Holland because they had always been faithful to the Spanish king

The Dutch stubborn as always started to provoke Philip II
Mass revolts in the Netherlands start with anti-Catholic looting
The Iconoclasm Fury broke out and idolatry burnt
Philip was outraged and condemned the Netherlands to the Bloodcampaign

Philip II felt betrayed and ordered:
"The Silent must be slain!"
The Stadholder of Orange died in Delft lying in a pool of blood
The Dutchmen may have lost their Chief but their National Spirit reinforced
