Treachery Lyrics

Charlemagne waged a war against the heathen Saxons. Unable to defeat them in combat, he invited the Saxons to discuss a peace treaty. Instead of discussing peace, he ordered 4500 unarmed men to be decapitated. This is the nature of Christianity; treachery and deceit.

A shadow rose across the land
And found its way into the hearts of man
Captured by an alien faith
Men turned into scum of earth

“All the treachery in your name
Resistance was in vain
All the oaths and pledges you took
Wiped away for your selfish gain
You betrayed your fathers gods
For the glory of Christ
You devastated your people
For this selfish lie”

Marching on the Saxon stronghold
Hoping to spread this disease
A disease you call faith
You fight and struggle
Why does your “god” sty clear?

“All the treachery in your name
Resistance was in vain
All the oaths and pledges you took
Wiped away for your selfish gain
You betrayed your fathers gods
For the glory of Christ
You devastated your people
For this selfish lie”

Your nature urges you to deceive
Kill unarmed men
The goal justifies the means
You cannot serve both
Your conscience and your “god”
Dream of wealth,
All you see are pools of blood
